They've all moved, and I'm pretty sure they are all accounted for :) nice healthy brood, and plenty of workers, until I have redone the ytong I wont know whether the Queen is ok, because the current glass on their tempory nest isnt clear enough to see thru, but I'm pretty sure she is, they moved quickly
Colony has now moved into the hollowed out log I made for them, woot!

Nice ants. I hope they are as prosperous in the future as they are now. \:D/
Ohh very nice john, wish i had done the same with my log now :( Shame il never see the ligniperda queen again.
wow
are those bullet ants or bullet ants called **** clavata ?
Bullet ants are Paraponera clavata yep, not sure I'm ready to keep them yet hehe
wow nice one, the nasty thing is the way you can see the hairs on the larvea because there really thick and creepy lol. i still love em though.
What are purpous of the hairs on the larvae?
so they hook onto each other and one ant can carry many larvea at once.
Oh i see. But what i can't see is the hairs on my species i have. Do they only have hairs on some species?
By the way, is it harder to keep the ants above than other easy ants to keep (e.g Camponotus Ligniperda).
