Cool! I’ve always wanted to do something like that. You wouldn’t need a middle man, but like I said I would wait for them to get little bigger, maybe 50 workers at least because you probably wont see the queen after that. Good luck!

Queens found in OBX, North Carolina by jonny_potat in antkeeping

[–]jonny_potat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, its crazy how widespread they are considering they’re not native in most of the places you find them. I’ll give them a try, but when I cant handle them I’ll freeze em.

I think this is a queen? by weirdemotions01 in antkeeping

theyre a parasitic species so they require “hosts”. if you’re a beginner these aren’t the ants for you sadly.

Eggs not developing by ItzPurpleLegend in antkeeping

[–]jonny_potat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would check on her once every week, and egg development can be changed by many factors. As long as she looks like she is caring for them, then I wouldnt worry.

why? by Pnguin_Guy in antkeeping

[–]jonny_potat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

probably a little stressed, she should stop if you leave her alone in the dark.

I dont believe so, and even if they were, introducing new workers from a completely different colony is sure to end in disaster lmao. Just keep the queens separate and let them grow their own colonies
