the problem is it is very difficult to tell the diffrence between the queen and the larger majors, i found another 2 smaller workers alive earlier, but since then all 3 of smaller workers have died :( I now have 2 majors, one is possibly the Queen, however i've found a few dead ants that are larger than both the ants that are left, so its unlikly that one of the live ants is the queen :(
they've been in hibernation for a month already, so i've no choice but to bring them out and cross my fingers...heres hopeing!
Although this is a bit of a non-starter, its reaffirmed my love for Cataglyphis, they are really beautiful ants, and certainly look like they could cause a problem for someone who might try to poke around in their nest! lol their mandibles are are very big, with a very serated edge that looks razor sharp
They are in deed very nice ants. I wish you the best of luck with this one.
my fingers are crossed in hope 4 u and your colony, miszt good luck i hope your queens alive and she will soon start producing a big and healthy colony 4 u :)
be carefull feeding them and watering them lol :teeth:
First and Last pictures of my doomed colony :( theyr such beautiful ants :x
The Queen should have a larger Thorax, however these all have (relitivly) the same size thorax :? i think thats the conclusion now...just got to wait for them to die
im sorry to hear that his colony arrived badly for you i have had personal experience with royal mail and like you say they are a waste of time thats why i use the DHL option as i have never had any problems with them.
im stilling hoping for you that one of these ants is the queen and that this colony will be able to start again.

Yeah, that is bad news miszt, I too have first hand experiance of losing an expensive colony through royal mails lousy service. Hope something good happens for you soon on the Cataglyphis front.
...also sorry to hear that from me ;) ... my Camponotus maculatus died this weekend , so that same feelings :(
