Additionally: She looks like Solenopsis Geminata. I don’t know.
You were right! It is indeed Solenopsis geminata
Wow, Thank You! I was confused at first when I caught her. I have actually caught two. Well, is Solenopsis a difficult species to keep?
If you make it hard, yes. What I mean by this is when they outgrow a nest, you dont need to attach a new nest. They will stay at that current size. Also, these ants can be neglected much more than other species as if they have atiquit water and seeds or protein they will grow until they completely fill the nest.
