Hey everyone. So my Camponotus Chromaiodes ant colony has 4 workers now, and I decided to build a homemade outworld for them to start exploring and expanding. I used some 1/8th inch plexi sheets I had laying around. Took about an hour, and it came out beautifully. 5"x5"x4". I put a drop of honey and half of a mealworm into the outworld, and as you can see in the pictures, the ants started exploring very quick. Not the best thing I've ever built, but, I had fun with it.
Here are the pictures: https://imgur.com/gallery/9Hd9yRT
Let me know what you think guys.

Re: Homemade outworld!
I've never seen one of their products. When I buy products, I'm going to stick with AntsCanada products. But, for now, I'm going to keep building these outworlds. Just because it's fun as hell, and money is tight at the moment. LolSolenopsisKeeper wrote: ↑Sun Jul 17, 2022 10:42 amLooks great! Definitely cheaper than other companies!

Re: Homemade outworld!
I don’t use a lot of AC products, because they break easy and glass tubes are much better for visibility. True about money, especially with gas and food prices.LIExoticBreeders wrote: ↑Sun Jul 17, 2022 10:47 amI've never seen one of their products.
