Oecophylla How!
:grin:
I've seen the photos on your topic in "experience with exotic ants".
One my friend wants to keep one Oecophylla colony, but he says that these ants are more aggressive. What do you say on this?
Wishes for the colony keep :wink:
WOW is all i can say.. thats a wicked setup Well done adam.. Ur sooo gonna have to share details with me.. perhaps even do a How to post.. n perhaps Jimmy could make it a sticky topic.. if thats the word lol
Just wondering Adam.. What happens if they fall off the branch on the way or way back to the foraging area ???
Hey Adam, you have some nice species, I have read your other reports and I would choose much the same if I had the space to keep them all:) I`m very interested to see how you progress with these Oecophylla as there is not much info at all on these ants in the English part of the forum.
Best of luck mate.
Well thankyou for such nice comments. Sphecomyrmex im not so sure on the aggresive level of these ants as i have not kept them before but i will surly let you know wot i find out . SteveUK28 In regards to your question im hoping they dont fall of and recording to the research i have done it would be very hard for them to fall as there use to climbing up trees etc . If it does happen i shall just put them back . :) And Ashton yes i will deffinatly keep intouch with my progress .
Thankyou all
Adam
Nice stuff :) I really like Oecophylla weaver ants, want to get sum green australian ones one day :D
Look forward to seeing how your colony progresses!
Very nice ants Adam and i wish you good luck with them.
In a dutch forum i know a guy who keeps them to, the first 2 queens (colonies) he had no luck, they died, reason unknown. Now he has back 2 new colonies and for now they are doing great.
You can look at the pictures here if you want ( http://www.antforum.be/f30-blogs/t324-oecophylla-smaragdina-ii-koningin-van-thaise-afkomst.html ) very nice pictures, but you probably don't understand the writings. ;)
(thank you guys for putting the discussion so nicely here and not at the diary. ;))
How did u make the branches adam ?
Thankyou jimmy , will use babel to translate it and further my knowledge :D
If you need some help translating just ask. ;) (this guy has much experience and has some very nice ants to. ;))
