My 10 yr old is consumed with learning about ants and was so excited to find this queen. I'd love to purchase an enclosure and know how to best care for the colony. Thanks!

Re: Brown/Yellow Queen ID
I agree.
Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.
