Make brood hatch faster
Does anyone one know how to make ants hatch faster?i know high humidity and keeping it in a dark space for a while. But is there anything you can give them to speed up the process? I've been experimenting with a few Queens I've even gave them monsters and Redbull. I know it speeds up their metabolism but I'm wondering if it will make them lay eggs and The Brood hatch much faster. Has anyone else experimenting on this subject?

after the first nanatic, a little cricket leg every week for protein will do the trick. eggs and brood develop a little faster, doing this.

Brood develops faster if you add heat, preferably from a reptile heating cable or pad.Solenopsisace wrote: ↑Sun Jun 05, 2016 1:25 pmDoes anyone one know how to make ants hatch faster?i know high humidity and keeping it in a dark space for a while.
