Dear jerryonesti,
welcome here in this forum.
Yes, we sell bull ants.
Queen = 900 Euro
Colony = 1.500 Euro
Have you experience with ants?
As basic equipment you need an aquarium or the like, normaly ground, water supply, food and a lamp.
When you want bull ants, please communicate with us.
Best regards

Hi Martin.
900€?!
1200€?1
you must given me wrong price info i hope =p
I dont have any practical experience
only theoretical...
I got an aquarium that i will extend the colony when its get too big.
and light, food and water i will supply them with ofcourse.
i was mainly thinkin what things i could use from ur webshop as i want to see the nest in the beginning
would 10mm tubing be enough for bullants?
i want to let em start their nest in a "Ant farm deluxe"
and also i want to buy the bigger "Ant island"
is it enough with an Ant farm deluxe to start with?
Best regards

Dear jerryonesti,
sorry but the price is realy, because it is very difficult to get this ants from australia.
For this species do you use a big container.
You can not use our antfarms or islands.
Best regards
