Hello guys, just a quickie if I may, my ants are in hibernation, but there is still some activity, I have kept an eye on them and added some suger/honey waters now and then..., I can see the egg sack that was there before they hibernated, but I dont think the queen has added to it, im sure she's stopped laying. She also seems active, is this normal?

JimmyVe: Re: Camponotus cruentatus. (3. Jan 2008 20:13)

Yes it is normal for them to move.
Not a bad idea to give them some food, i give my ants that are in hibernation 1 once a week new honey (ore sugar/water) and fresh water, also now and than a small bug. So if they like they could eat. ;)
The queen probably stops laying eggs like you said, that is a good thing, now she can come back full force is they wake up. ;)

darradar: Re: Camponotus cruentatus. (3. Jan 2008 23:58)

cool thanks Jimmy, I do only change the food probably 1 time in 2 weeks, and the water too, and have only offerd a bug 1 time which they left, so i havent botherd with a second try.

JimmyVe: Re: Camponotus cruentatus. (4. Jan 2008 14:04)

Looks nice, a few more weeks and they can wake up again. ;)

ant dude: Re: Camponotus cruentatus. (4. Jan 2008 14:50)
