Hi all,
Thank sithmaster676 and JimmyVe. :D
I have another question about Messor barbarus ants. I have recently discovered that Messor Barbarus require 10-15deg C for hibernation, what i wanted to know is were would i put the ants were the temperature is 10-15deg C?
outside in the shed/garage, or fridge
@kashmir79
I need to correct you on this one. In the fridge temperature is between 5-10 °C. So that is a bit too cold. Temperature outside in a shed can also drop bellow zero °C.
Garage in the house is a good idea. Or any unheated room in your house.
in deed, i put mine in a unheated room. The temperature never go below 10°c there so it is perfect. ;)

and thats the queen with her workers.
I ordered them from Antstore and got a queen with 5 workers, now I have 20 workers and a good brood. YAY
intresting photos :thumright:
Theres plenty more on my site Antpage.co.uk. Do you have any other species ant dude?
ok ill take a look at your site, i hope the pictures are just as quality and qualetey as the ones above lol :)
i currently own 4 species of ants,myrmica rubra x2 (my currant faviorites one colony has about 100-150 ants the other has 7 workers, both have 1 queen)1st colony is kept in basin 2nd in a y-tong tempereley :)
i also have 1 f.fusca colony it just has coupole workers cos i caught her, kept in small basin (temperley) :)
and 1 p.palldiulla colony about 25-50 workes i think :)
that it 4 the mo but i am planning on getting m.rubida from ant store once they finally come back on stock :!:
Cool,
Let me know some feedback on the site.
Ive got 1 colony of m.barbarus as mentioned, 1 colony of over a hundred M.Ruginodis in a starter farm set, 1 colony of T.caespitum now over 30 workers from the original 5 bought from here about 2 months ago, 1 colony of C.ligniperda 5 workers bought last week from here, and 1 colony of L.niger with 4 workers that started with the queen that I caught in the summer. All in starter sets...
I highly recommend T.caespitum, they are very lively.
really really nice site lots information and some really nice pics aswell 10 out of 10 magnifercent work!
when did u start the site itself?
