Messor Barbarus some tips plz.. :/
Hi, If you reading this, can you write some tips about Messor Barbarus? Can I put them into sand? Can they drink from sand? Do they like sand? Thanks.

They do build in sand, yet it's not a very stable digging material. when it's not watered regularly, it might just collapse over time. Plus it can grow bacteria that might harm your ants.LasiusGrandis wrote: ↑Thu Aug 23, 2018 9:23 amHi, If you reading this, can you write some tips about Messor Barbarus? Can I put them into sand?

I recommend a clay soil since it's much more stable when dry.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.
