No they like their natural meats usually. It helps them grow faster. Also give them natrul carbohydrates.
Why did I even make a signature if I am just gonna say this.

Re: protein jelly as main food source?
but you can still give them some protein jelly, just not as their main food source.
My current colonies:
-Miniature Military(formica neogagates)
-Black Hearts(crematogaster cerasi)
In search of new camponotus colony
[Have a look at antmaps.org]

The bee pollen I offered my harvester ants was accepted, so we'll see!

Main interest is C. Pennsylvanicus, interested in most native ants to my area.

Re: protein jelly as main food source?
I have started feeding mine
Fruit like bannana, tomatos and cucumber
any un processsed meat with nothing added including fish
Eggs.
And then insects and some jelly
I swap it out every 2 days before it starts going dry and really they eat what i eat (+ insects and jelly)
Just try to keep it all natual, no additives and if they seem to like it make a note as one of the things they eat.
I not sure what foods if any are poisions to ants, but been find so far.
