This specie live in my garden and I cought 5 young queens. But I had not so much cocoons of lasius in home , and they all died at tommorow morning :(
Yes don't forget these ants are parasitically (like gaster already said) so it is harder to keep them than a Lasius niger .
well all i have where i live is lasuis niger where i live!!!so i could get hundreds of eggs lol(well i would only use a few tho, as i dont want to disturb other colonies to much) but anyway they should be fine 4 me so...
thats one fat 'Moma' er it looks like the Alien Queen !! freaky :!:
hey would cocoons from other lasuis species be ok aswell???....i'm assuming yes but can somone help me out ere...
@kashmir79:lol yes she is a bit ''diferntly'' coulred compared to most ants...but still really liking this ant right now, it would be great if some one could sell me some. even if it would be spring/summer that i get 1 it would be well worth the wait :grin: (i hope anyway)
has anyone ever succesfully kept them before??? if so please help an giv a bitta info on dem [-o<
they look just the same as Lasius n iger/ Lasius flavus queens. whats the big urge to get one !? lol
lol, they just look like really great ants to me....
Most interesting is the fact the queens are temporaty social parasites, so you can give them L. niger cocoons and have mixed black and yellow colony. Moreover, L. umbratus are hosts for another very interesting and beautiful species, L. fuliginosus.
I think they have beautiful markings on them, a little simular to my Camp Sub... Just a lot smaller ;)
I had the luck of having a queen of Lasius fuliginosus but she didn't make it. I had here for a few weeks, she did not accept the slaves, why i don't know. (this was a few years ago, didn't find another queen after that)
