Atta texana journal
Posted: Tue Jun 13, 2017 1:53 pm
Well guys, it's time I introduce a new lady. My atta texana queen, in all her glory.
It's obvious my buddy did not give her the care and consideration I gave the two I caught for my son's friend. However, she seems rather content in her beyond small container.
In this picture u can kind of tell how small her container is. It's ridiculous really. I plan on moving her to a more suitable home when I get back home, however.... this presents another issue. What would be the best way to move this lady, her eggs, and fungus garden? I would like not to disturb her any more than necessary but she can not currently get out of this container on her own.
In this pic I zoomed in so you could make out her egg clutch and fungus farm.
I have several ideas on how I could setup a formicarium for this girl, but am open to well thought out ideas as well. On the other hand, I have zero idea as to how I would best move her into a different home without stressing her or damaging her fungus farm or egg clutch. ANY ideas on that front would be greatly appreciated.
