Usually one would wait until about 25+ workers to move a colony out of a test tube and into a larger home. Those ants should be hibernating right now though since it’s winter.
Keeping:
Tetramorium immigrans * Lasius Neoniger * Lasius Claviger * Messor Aciculatus * Myrmica Rubra * Camponotus Novaeboracensis * Camponotus Turkastanus * Pheidole Pallidula
