04ab130695: Lasius niger diary. (11. Sep 2010 16:00)

I captured my own queen during a nuptial flight a few days ago and have put her in a red tinted test tube with moistened cotton wool. The usual. Now I suppose it' just a waiting game.

-Checked up on her again today, I was able to spot 2 small eggs near the moistened cotton! very excited! I never realised the eggs were so minute.

Exact same tingh append to me. Two days ago I found a queen without wing in my kitchen :D put it in a test tube, and today I found 2 insanely small eggs.
Good ant keepings to you all!
