I've got a Camponotus Pennsylvannicus colony!

Nice

Just be patient and don't water the jar, and make sure the Hybrid Nest is warm and moist.

Correction it looks like in your area there are some colonies that are rather large right now going for 100$ 150$ and 300$ pretty pricy in my book . I would suggest you try to catch as many queens as possible otherwise you might end up spending more than your whole setup.

I live in SC, so I only have an answer for the last question. Normally starter colonies are anywhere from 20$ to 60$ depending on how rare the species is.

Good Luck, and Ant Love Forever!

Atta Texana. Or Honey Pot.

I need responses quickly. So if anyone has an idea please say so!

crickets and mealworms and honey. every 2-4 days is a feeding I always give my ants a lot of honey for energy. When the first ants arrive and start pulling on the cotton. I recommend getting the AC test tube portal for this. I don't recommend a sugar block.

Good Luck!

Tip: You can never do too much research trust me. I speak from experience.
