Anoplolepis Gracillipes (Yellow Crazy Ant) Diet
What protein foods that are not live will Yellow Crazy Ants eat? Will they eat non live protein foods? Can they eat hard boiled egg or boiled chicken?
Sad beginner with a dead queen and a dying pheidole colony
Maybe an upcoming Yellow Crazy ant colony owner!

I would try the boiled eggs. But try to boil the egg too much otherwise all the protein goes lost due to the boiling process. Only feed the egg white tho.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.

Protein Jelly
Freeze-Dried insects
dry Cat/Dog food
Lunch meat
cooked chicken

Just a reminder. When feeding your ants, try to diversify their diet. If you find something that works, don't stop experimenting (within safe limits of course.)
