Hello,
I am brand new at raising ants and I was wondering if it would be safe to move my colony from their test tube to the nest attached in the picture. I need to move them out of their tube as the cotton is leaking water and there is mold on it. I have Lasius Niger queen with around 10 workers and 10 eggs.
Banana for scale.
Thank you

Do you know how to transfer tubes? I don’t think that their ready for a nest.

There's no picture. You could use Google Photos instead.
