Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.

Re: Camponotus sansabeanus i need help
thats what i was thinking then i put a fruit flie in there and they took it back in their hive but i only put one to test it idk if they ate it or not but my best guess they took the fruit flie to save it tell they are needing the food

Re: Camponotus sansabeanus i need help
That would be my guess too. But don’t keep feeding them, because if they don’t eat it it will mold.loveants1341 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 22, 2022 10:05 amthats what i was thinking then i put a fruit flie in there and they took it back in their hive but i only put one to test it idk if they ate it or not but my best guess they took the fruit flie to save it tell they are needing the food

Re: Camponotus sansabeanus i need help
I have tried to Find AntsCanada’s protein cups but I can’t. I don’t think you need to worry about the poop, it does not mold to bad, but you could buy spring tails and put them in there.loveants1341 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 22, 2022 2:55 pmdo u know how to get the jello cup that antcananda use for his i know its high protin as well or will Camponotus sansabeanus not like that type of food (im talking when they get into a bigger house when around 100+ workers ) i know if they get into a bigger house to fast they will die
