@ Antdude: Ya I need to save up my money too lol but lucky me my B day is on 17th feb and my parents owe me money :grin:

@Alexander:) :Definetly no bird sand and soil for plant cuttings... (my own experience) U can use compost peat and sand/Loam mixture which u can buy from Antstore, oh and humus is a nice add to the ground. U also might wanna add a pice of wood or so as they like to nest under such things.
Then there is another way which i took, Ytong. Ytong out of aereated cement or just out of cork your choice. But I really do think that you should have had some experience with ants first as these arent that easy but still, better alive then dead. hope that helps u :wink:

OK i just thought Id post some more pics of ym ants hibernating but I still havnt got the actual setup picsture yet. The first one is a pic of my ants huddeld togother at the roof in the room of the ytong, the second one is just a pic after i got them from outside(i noticed it was decreasing till 2C!)
The pic shows the ytong part from birdseye view
