Hi guys,
I received what i think is a camponotus queen today.. can any1 tell me what she is please?
Also she seemed stressed out and she seemed to have cotton wool stuck in her mouth.. is this possible.. i did try pulling it out with some tweezers but she just kept hold of it... Should i just leave her be or shall i try and remove it again after she has been in the dark for a few hours????
Sorry for the pic quality best i could do.
Many thanks
:drink06:
thats camponotos
havent you tried to help her out by getting that wool out of her mouth ?? :(
put her in the fridge for 50 secs and get her knocked out and pull the cotton wool out. should reduce stress. and camp's dont like stress, can kill the queens quite easily
hope all goes well :D
lol i did say that i had tried and she would not let go.. but yeh fridge is a good idea.. as long as it dont kill her!!!!!!!
Yes it is Camponotus :) , but which one? hmm , it look by me as one Campo spec. from South Europe , she is coloured like C.barbaricus , but there is another one smaller specie , do not know name
.... sooo what is her comefrom ? and what size?
She came from Israel and is about 12-14mm
Do you have MSN skippy?
yes I have MSN skippynko@post.sk ... , hmm 12-14 mm , maybe Camponotus sylvaticus , but not sure if it lives in Israel
Check this morning and she did die :(
There was a bunch of what looked like blood under her but was more brown.. any ideas what it could have been?
i personally think camponotos are a pain in the ass
Well thats a real nice opinion you have there gabranth.. One i never asked for! And no help whatsoeva!
what makes camponotos 'pain in the arse'* (we are British you know), apart from the obvious way of getting this pain, as i am considering get one of these species.
Sorry to hear of your loss Steve.
