The Bottle Colony

[Antmanboy]

So I bought a new carpenter ant colony and they came in a bottle so I call them the bottle colony and I named the queen Queen Antlizabith ( Get it ) they had mabye 30 to 50 workers. Also I belive they are Camponotous sayi. This is going to be like a diary log and feel free to comment

this morning I saw a worker drinking some honey and saw some other workers tending brood. I belive that queen antlizabith had laid more eggs since I got them 2 days ago. There is tons of pupa so more workers expected soon

Nice! That really is a lot of pupae, i'm jealous.. my colony is still much smaller.
Good luck, keep ups updated!
