You're correct. The measurements in millimeters he gave need to be checked.

sorry on the measurements, here are some over head pics. I will take a pic with tape measure. Thanks again.

Sorry I forgot to post the pics

but look she already has 2 eggs, and I have only had her for only 3 days. I tried looking her up on antweb.org but I couldnt find one that matched.

Wow, she's a beautiful specimen. I want a Camponotus species terribly bad lol. I'll get one (or more

) in due time.
