Iiridomyrmex queen, egg to pupa
Hi guys.
A quick question, how long does an iridomyrmex egg form into the adult worker or pupa.
Ive had my queen for 4 days now and on the 2 day she laid eggs.
Thanks

"The eggs take 44 to 61 days to fully develop into adults."

I am no expert by any means so you might want to wait for someone who actually knows what he is doing but I think they are fully claustral so you won't need to feed them anything until a few workers arrive, but as always a drop of honey can't hurt I supposeDrMill wrote:Thanks I read the same wiki just then lol.

Crap, I completely missed that typo. I meant feed not find.
