Hello to anyone subscribed to this journal.
This is a little update on myself: I have gotten into beekeeping. Last year, I made my first attempt with 2 hives, and I am trying again this spring. Right now I'm a junior in high school and I want to teach biology.
I may or may not start another journal, but I will be raising a C cerasi queen I caught last summer. I think I will come back to this forum periodically simply because I enjoy the community.
Ant love! Cheers!

I love keeping Formica too!WillWithAnts wrote: ↑Thu Mar 02, 2017 10:14 pmOoohhh, that's what they were. That is probably why they were such cotton-pullers too. . . nope, she didn't make it to Winter.Batspiderfish wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2016 8:57 amI hope that Formica social parasite in the last post is ok...Thank you! I woke up my 80-member Formica colony a few weeks ago and they have been doing fine. The 4 queens are not producing eggs yet, but they probably will soon. I woke up the rest of my ants yesterday. I will feed them their first meal in about 3 months soon.Firestar987654321 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2016 2:10 amWow Will, nice job at your queens! Right now it's December, so there aren't any queens around so i am waiting for late spring and summer. Good luck with your Lasius neoniger and Camponotus colonies!
Good luck catching queens this year!

And all three of us South Dakotans are on the same topic!

Re: Will's Ant Journal 2016
I have been dreaming about that. Mabey I would keep a species that doesn't grow very large colonies (if you call them colonies) such as the bumble bee.WillWithAnts wrote: ↑Sat Mar 24, 2018 8:06 pmHello to anyone subscribed to this journal.
