Woops... Slave Maker Ants invaded.

I was searching around my yard for a lasius niger colony that is fairly mature... I disturbed the soil in the general area but didn't find more than a few ants and enclosed pupae. I was planning to place a board on top so I could easily capture brood. I came back a few hours later to find several ants under attack and a swarm of red slave makers stationed above the disturbed soil and a trail that was very long littered with brood being stolen
Keeper of:
1 x Lasius Flavus
1 x Aphaenogaster Fulva
1 x Tetramorium Immigrans
1 x Prenolepsis Imparis

Why do these posts seem like they should be in a journal but instead are all over the ace :roll:
Ants I have-
camponotus compressus colony- the shadow warriors.
Pls just let me have a tetramorium colony

Locking it since it's rather old. Would have loved to read more tho.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.
