Destroyer199: How is your queen ant sent? (29. Jul 2009 08:33)

Hey
I was wondering what does you queen come in when you buy it online?
Also will it have water?

Thanks for reading and replying.

Most likely it will be in a testing tube. Part of the tube will be a small water tank sealed with cotton, the queen is abled to drink by sucking on the cotton. ;)

Okay and im guessing you put the tube in the farm and wait for the queen to leave the test tube?

Yes, that's correct!

OR you leave her in the test tube untill she has some workers.. thats the best idea.

best way i have found is i brought some Formica on ebay, they came in a small tub full of moss, this ment when they sent them they wernt all bouncing around the test tube, and i think it was alot less stressful

normally by test tube though =P
