would they be alright in cork?
They will chew straight through cork. Also, they need a fairly moist nest.
but would they do it in nature?
chew through??
yep these ants are chewing nutters small but strong and take no prisoners
but again if the cork is in a tank then sureley they won't escape
No they would not escape. If you use a ytong are a corck nest inside a tank you should be fine. I keep mine in a sand nest so they don't have anything to dig through, the only down side on that one is that i can not see inside the nest.
well i have decided on and plaster nest as all the y-tongs i try for some or many reasons they don't like which i find a bit annoying so i have made one to go inside a tank just hope it comes out of the mould well :) i will try and post some pics when i take it out :wink:
then i will order the ants :)
do they need a moist nest because when i saw them in the south of france the ground was very dry the only real moistuer they got was when there was a big down pour for about ten minutes.
as i should be getting these ants i would like to ask a few questions:
how long from eggs to worker?
and how many workers before soldiers?
what is the right humidity?
and the right temp for both in hibernation and out of hibernation?
thankyou

Yes they need a moist nest, its very bad for these ants to have a dry nest.
If everything works out well about 6-8 weeks.
Depends mine had there first soldiers when there where about 50 workers.
About 60-80% would do just fine.
25-30°C in hibernation 10°C.
cool thanks very much just one small question.
when i saw these in the wild in the south of france it was very dry and the seemed to be doing very well?? i wathed them take down a wasp witch was aiming to sting me! but i hit it and it happend to fall right on the entrance of the nest!!
