Re: Need to be identified ASAP!
It's okay, I'll try to get better pictures. But to make a new topic. Go to the part of the forum where you want to talk about (I.D ants for example). Then towards the middle-ish top left says "New topic" Click and go from there.

Re: Identifying this ant!

Re: What happened to this colony?!
I'll try to take pics later and post them to show you what I mean. But that would be cool but sad to witness that.
