Camponotus Pennsylvanicus pulling on cotton in test tube setup

[Proverbs66]

You don't have to worry my camponotus pennsylvannicus pulled at her cotton for weeks I had to change it twice I just stopped worrying and left her alone even though I was still worried she would dig her way through the cotton. She calmed down and started laying eggs it was relieving to see because I was considering letting her go so she's fine and also camponotus are notorious for pulling cotton so don't be surprised

My queen wedged herself in between the cotton and the tube and I was so scared. She pushed herself through the entire thing and escaped into my closet. Thankfully I found her.
These queens can be really stressful haha.

It seems like it. I have two Camp. Pennsylvanicus and one Novaeboracensis and only one of the Penn. is so stressed though. The other two are just laying eggs peacefully it seems.
