Cotton Turned Purple In Test Tube
So I have a aphenogaster colony that has had a rough winter and I put them in a new test tube last week. Since then the cotton near the water has slowly gone purple. Is the purple bad?

It started raining so I brought what I had dug in the jar inside and looked thru it for quite awhile and didnt see any that stuck out as the queen. Im...
