Looks like a nice colony. ;)

A few more workers are born. I tried feeding them termites, and they love them!

Photo´s are a bit big for me, but nice quality... You have nice interesting species, keep up good work! =D>

JimmyVe: Re: Aka's ants (16. Sep 2008 15:11)

Great pictures and great ants. Keep them coming. ;)

aka ant: Re: Aka's ants (16. Sep 2008 19:15)

I sure will, thanks!
I found a small colony of what think are Ponera.
10-15 workers and 10 pupa, Im not sure if I have the queen since they all look the same.
Its hard to get a good pic because its wet in the tube.

Yes the queen of that species looks pretty much the same as the workers. Check out if you see some new brood (eggs) the next days, than you know if you have the queen or not. ;)

How about a spider twice the mass of the queen? Should feed them for a week. :D

That is a big spider. ;) I'm sure they love it.
