The ruby ant queen lost a worker.

Added a drop of nectar for the other 2 to drink + the queen.

Larva spotted!

The queen + worker liked the nectar.

The outworld for them is awesome.

I love seeing the worker come out of their test tube.

Might not know much about my ruby ants but I love them.

I caught a spider and fed it to my ants, they loved it, I spotted the queen and the larva eating the spider.

They are my favorite.

Recently I caught a fly so I killed it and fed it to my queen via outworld and I checked on her the next day without opening the nest and the fly was gone.

Checked on my queen last night 30 mins after adding a drop of nectar and the queen and worker were drinking the drop.

The Ant Tower small that is attached to their test tube is working great.

Food for ants
Beetles I am currently feeding my ants black carpet beetles
Results: The fire ant workers that I caught from a supercolony like them, I will try them with my Queen and worker.

What species is this?

They are Walking Ruby ants, please Don't post things on people's Journals, that is for the person to show their progress in a colony. Send a Private Message, Please.

Queen ate all eggs and worker died.

I think I got scammed I am 90% sure she is infertile and worker (while alive) was not interested in being around queen.

Sounds like you got scammed. I would not recommend buying ants. I have never bought ants, you just have to be patient about catching your own.
