Not as early as you guys, but this is still a rather early post for me. :lol: I was wondering if you guys think it would be a good Idea to connect a small little out world to Estrella's tube, she now has three workers and a fourth on the way. Also, I need to get her out of the tube and into a new one, Mold *sighs*. Do you guys think it would be good to do that with them.

Also still not sure about my two pharaoh ant queens. I'm kinda clueless about them. One is black and the other is yellowish brown. Both tiny *pulls out magniffy glass*. And I'm wondering if I could put more than one in the same container? Still clueless about this species :lol: .

On another topic, thunderstorms supposedly coming up after the weekend, so maybe some late flyers out! last chance of the year I would think, at least here in the south where our "summer" is half the year anyway. -_-
Lol, sounds like she's into sharing?
Yeah well, I guess you can call us polygenous... or polyamorous, if you like. :P :)
So in other words plenty of things to do to keep your mind off the ants! And here you are asking us?

I'm thinking american carpenter ant/camponotus americanus. What do you guys think? There are a few that look really similar. I'm using this website to ID them:
