Re: My queen ant journal
I don't think ants had a nuptial flight yesterday as i couldn't find a single dead male ant. The p. Parva colony in one of my pots also didn't have a nuptial flight
Ants I have-
camponotus compressus colony- the shadow warriors.
Pls just let me have a tetramorium colony

Now come to think of it, I don't need to find their favorite flavor, as they will just eat "default" yogurtAM1C39 wrote: ↑Fri May 06, 2022 7:53 amWell yogurt does have a lot of nutrients that the ants might like.

Overwatered their nest
Also moved them into a different room with air conditioning because the current room got as hot as 45* C It may slow their growth but as long as they are alive its good
