Il think about it but I heard from one of my mates that the pet shops gonna be open again with new stuff. So if they have more reptiles and insects then before then it would be ace.
I checked thismorning on my queen before school and she seems to have settled down just fine, all the larvae are removed from the wool into a nice pile and she drank all the honey I gave her. No evidence that she touched the bannana outside the tube and I dont know if she left the tube yet but theres always some earthe at the entrance could be her or me when I take the tub down to look in.
So long story short
My queens settled down and she fine hope she lays eggs soon

Well it looks like she is doing fine than. Give her some rest and take good care of her and she will give you workers soon. ;)

Btw I rememberd that I still have some workers alive form the old nest were the queen is dead do you thinks its possible that I could make them adopt this queen? And if the queen or worker dont like it can the queen kill the worker?
I dont want the queen to die at all (money reasons and just want her alive lol)
I thought that I would add one worker at a time

So anyone think it would work?

tbh ashhad.. no i dont think it would work.. i think the queen would most probabily kill the worker.

JimmyVe: (1. Mär 2008 19:10)

The change of that working is very low. The queen would probably kill the worker, but you can try it with one worker and see what she does.




Let us know who you are,
here .
Thanks !
