To have more than 1 queen in a colony they need to be together from the start. Not all species could have more than 1 queen.
If you add a queen to a colony later it is possible they (workers) kill her.
If you have more queens the colony grows faster. ;)
Yes, you are right, i didn't see the second answer (is it better to have more than one queen ? ), like i said, i have 3 queens in that colony and they lay ofcourse - 3 times more eggs! :P They have a huge pile now, i'm waiting for atleast 200% growth to the colony this year!
wow sounds good :)
i have just finished creating my habitat for my new formica fusca species and should be ordering them this Sunday, i will fill the arena with sand so that they can do what they want with it :) the tubing for it is 15mm thick so do you think it will be alright ?
the arena is 30 by 20 by 20 cm hopefully this will be big enough

I'm bit concerned about the tube - it seems that it is dark inside - the ants may move there, not in the nesting. Looks good anyway
no light can get through the tubing but not an incredible lot and i might put holes in the tube with a needle so they won't move in there

Then you have to make a lot of holes - or just replace the old one with new.
Looks good sith. But like Kale sad, maybe they will try to move to the tube. Maybe it is better to use an other tube.
i cant use another tube because it is glued in with the strongest stuff money an buy :( but i will just make a lot of small pin holes to let light in and the tube will be in sunlight for most of the day :)

;) Looks like you did all you can to not let them move into the tube.
But if they do, don't make a big deal of it. If the colony get bigger they can not stay in that tube. ;)
It just would be better to take the old tube off to be sure.
