Re: Queen lets brood alone to drink.

I think she will move her brood when the conditions become to bad for the brood to keep growing. Maybe if you notice the brood dying off you could try and gently move it to the more humid testtube, I did this once using a very soft paint brush. I'm no expert though so maybe I'm wrong.

Re: School project questions

Whew it's been a while since I've been on here, had some struggles with loggin in. Even though I did't have many ants to show my teacher was impressed nonetheless with the ants and rightfully so! I ended up getting a score of 8/10 which I'm happy enough about. I want to thank everyone who has given ...

Although i don't think that this is true, as the strip of shadow is only like a centimeter wide and they don't specifically walk in that small strip of ...

Re: School project questions

Re: School project questions

You think ants can be conditioned like that? I mean that would be really smart if they figure out light=food. We shall see. I thought they loved the egg yolk I gave them, till they started throwing it on the garbage pile :lol: LOL apparently my topic is interesting, as more than 2000 people have cli...
