As for know it seems they are doing great, i hope it works out. These ants are really amazing. :)

Yep. On this section i am not really explaining my new setup.

But i have three environments for them to live in. Y-tong nest, sand loam and test tubes. At the moment they are living partially in the y-tong nest and in the sand.

Edit: in a few months we will see if the three queens have laid enough eggs to replace the current generation workers. Otherwise, the colony will collapse.

Lets all hope so. :)

How do you make your setup escapeproof?
Are they good at climbing the glass?

I use PTFE on the edges of the basin and i have a lid. Though, i am very worried they might get out. :) Especially when i have a very big colony.

I have fed the colony a living meal worm, video:

I have made a video about the workers dragging a meal worm to the nest.
