Re: HELP!! Newbie here (Carebara sp)
They are very hard to raise in captivity, and I mean very. Even AntsCanada couldn't get them to found a colony, so I would recommend putting them in the dark and not checking them for a very long time.Sumireaio wrote: ↑Mon Jun 04, 2018 10:51 amSo I have 2 carebara queens, and almost no experience in ant keeping.
I googled a bit about the sp and bottom line its not for noobs like me, but I really wanna keep them, and see them grow a colony (if they lay eggs that is). So any kind of help or advice about carebara is much appreciated.
They're so adorable!!
