heres a picture, it looks like there digging.
im jealous now lol.
Deadmeat, if you dont mind, would you explain to me how you did your water thing to keep the nest damp. Because when i tried the whole thing just flooded
Looks like they are digging indeed.
@ R3dFox: yes maybe he can explain it better than me. ;)
ok, firstly i put the seramis granulat at the bottom. bout an inch worth. then i used a cheap biro and removed the ink and ball point. then placed the bottom ontop of the seramis. then i started layering up the sand/loam mixture into the colours. leaving about 1 inch of the pen showing at the top. then you just use the pipet to fill the seramis with water, you can see it filling up. everso easy. my sand and loam changed to 'darker' colour in no time. its as easy as that! oh and dont forget to put the cotten wool in the end! ants cant swim :P
ive attached a few pictures
all the best with it, Alan
i did all that the first time. But i couldnt tell when to show adding water. So mine ended up completly soaking.
So how did you know when you put enough water in? what should i look for o how much pippett fills?
Oh. and one more thing, lol, ive already emptied and re-filled my farm, so think i will be able to force/dig the pen in easily? =S
@ jimmyVe, yea lol you guys were cool n helped, but deadmeat could proberly explain it a tad better
Hey all! just got back in from a meal and found my ants were almost all covered up! there making great progress in settling in!
ive attached a picture for anyone interested!
@ R3dFox - you could see where the water level was if you look closely. ive taken a picture but not sure if its clear on the picture.
also it would be very hard to insert a pipe now. have you use the colouerd loam and sand? if not just empty it again.
@ R3dFox: As long as you get i wright I'm glad. ;) Good luck filling it again. lol
@ deadmeat30: Looks like they already feel home. ;) Good job.
Well i was going to try filling it again but i dont have enough clay. So ill just have to wait till i got enough money and buy some more off the store.
you can also use little stones (small little stones) if you don't have clay.
@R3dFox - i have some seramis clay, if you can cover the postage costs over paypal i should be able to send you some, get ur ant farm back up and started. let me know what u wanna do.
