Do I have to feed them during the hibernation?
Like giving them sugar water or proteins?

Re: Are they lasius niger?
The ants and me are both from europe.

Hello Batspiderfish.
Again thank you so much for your help.

Re: Difference between Starter Kits
Both my queens, tetramorium and the lasius one now layed eggs... Depending on handle and grow rate I decide which one I keep...
