Upload the pictures to an image host(imgur.com, deviant art, etc) and use the bbc links [.img] link.jpg[./img] without the .s
Ants are life's most successful invaders. Understand and respect that power.

I have no idea. I just got into ant keeping, so I’m a complete noob. If that is what my queens are, is that rare or cool or something??

I read it takes a while for crematogaster eggs to go to workers. But the workers have cool heart shaped gasters!

Nice!!
The queens are very small, about the size of my thumb nail. Could they still be queens?
