Differences between the hyrid nests

[amyneub]

Regarding the hybrid series, how important is it to match your species to the one designed for it? I see how the size of the chambers differs, bur are there significant differences in the humidity created within each type? Other differences I'm not thinking of? I'm getting ready to house a Lasius Brevicornis colony and have 3 AntsCanada nests - formica, campo, and solenopsis. Is it ok if I just choose the closest one? (what would that be?) Or is it important that I buy the Lasius one? /thanks!

It does not really mater, witchever one you get will be suitable for your colony. You could get the lasius nest as it does look to have good chamber and tunnel sizes for lasius.

It says on website what ants is best for. I do believe Formica is good for Lasius

Most of the nest are same. Try getting the ones with bigger chambers. Lasius and formica are one of the greatest

I think most are compatible with all species except for Camponotus nests and related nests. Formica and Lasius nests do look pretty cool though and are the best…
