Camponotus dont have stings, they are Formicinae :)
no , she has not sting ... , but she bit by mandibules a lot :)
Hey guys I got my Camponotus fellah colony in the test tube. It was almost 4 days and they still stay in the tube plus they completely closed the other side of the tube with some dirt that they were able to pick it up from the surrounding area. I tried to give them worm or two but they are not eating.
1) Is this normal behavior?
Thanks
yes its a normal behavior.
If the colony is not to big , they prefer to stay in the test tube.
Almost every kind of ant that uses the test tube as their nest will close it with material they find in the formicarium.
Thanks man, the colony has only 9 workers and some eggs.
Many camponotus are slowly growing so it will take a while until they need a bigger nest.
The reason that they are not taking any food might be caused by hibernation. i dont know if camponotus fellah has a endogen rythm , but my ligniperda stopped taking food at the end of october
Not sure where C. fellaha usually reside, but they don't look like any hibernating species. However, my Laosian Camponotus Sp. has stopped eating to, I think since I moved them into their new basin. Not sure if it's due to season, or some other factor. They have moved to their ytong nest, and non of the larvae make it to cocooning; they refuse to eat any protein I give them, but they still eat sugarwater. Needless to say I'm worried about them. :/
Also, on the subject of stinging; I've observed that my Campnotnus Sp. mimics stinging when they attack.
