They may eat the poop in the tube, and might also eat that mold.SavANT wrote: ↑Wed Apr 27, 2022 10:46 amQuick question, what happens if springtails move from the outworlds to the test tube? Like do they eat up the mould on the cotton?SolenopsisKeeper wrote: ↑Wed Apr 27, 2022 8:24 amMine let them live for approximately 3 hours.

Ooo seems like the queen has laid even more eggs. Im expecting the colony to have around a hundred workers by the end of May. Also jeff is way bigger than jeff2 I don't know why

Re: My queen ant journal
Pretty sure Jeff’s are moths, but i my be wrong.
Maybe ones a female, ones a male? Maybe one had more optimal conditions?

Re: My queen ant journal
Got it. I just dug up a pheidole colony, and they majors are different sizes.(Ever so slightly) Have you changed the diet recently? My Camponotus make majors when I only feed them superwomrs(But lots of nantics) and with crickets, flies, and superworms, it’s a mix between media, majors and workers.Antloverhuman wrote: ↑Sun May 01, 2022 12:13 pmCorr was the moth.

If Jeff came first, colony spent all resources on her/him, and the larvae that they started to invest into after Jeff enclosed had already been fed sugar water and non healthy foods

Re: My queen ant journal
RIP. Sometimes small species will come in your home to have flights. I have pheidole flying in my house every march(Only around 30 fly over the season in total). Also, try checking window sills. I have heard queens will rest on outdoor window sillsAntloverhuman wrote: ↑Wed May 04, 2022 11:43 amIt rained here alot but sadly school is closed tomorrow so i cant go catch different queens
