Tetramorium immigrans i beleive

31 July 2023 I had the other tt attached for a day and for some reason their old tt slightly flooded which prompted them to shift. There are still some worker and i think 1 larva being held hostage (brings back memories from when jeff was held back :lol: ). But they are doing fine with a nice pile o...

They don't sting. They put formic acid on their pretty like that

Depending on what stage the colony is, you can leave them for three weeks (or sometimes even more) If the colony is just founding with only a queen, you can leave them for a month (doesn't work for semiclaustral species however) If the colony has an outworld attached, you can leave sufficient food i...

23 July 2023 Fed them a termite alate which was very hard to do. They were all swarming the cotton so i couldn't remove it .

I've been feeding them every Saturday and the colony's growing nice. I took some photos and videos but i am thinking I will also start a yt channel to post about the colonies (along with some other hobbies) but not now as i can't find time (school and coaching both are destroying me)

Feed her once a week with very little amounts of food (sugars one week and protein the other week) and don't check on her other than the feeding days

You should just keep them in a test tube setup and remove the outworld until the colony grows larger. Also start feeding them a little more to hopefully get their numbers back up
