The colony is really going great ! Today I fed them a cut up mealworm and to my surprise they really bombarded them with workers, and even more surprising multiple majors. I started with one major and now there are at least 4 of them. I estimate that there are now 70-80 workers (which is not bad after 1,5 month starting with 25 workers) I also tried something new today, I gave them a mixture of milk and honey because it contains sugar+protein, but the workers don't seem very enthusiastic.

Here are some pictures:

It has been awhile since the last update (sorry :mrgreen: !) the colony has really grown, there are like 120-140 workers now.
Over the last weeks I have gradually cooled them uittil it was cold enough to turn the heating of, the temperature is now around 10-15 degrees Celsius. I'm going to leave them like that until around Februari.

See you in Februari !
