Chatham Chavvy: Test Tube (29. Mai 2008 22:52)

Hello all

Everyone that read my previous post i got my first queen ant and workers yesterday :)

Anyways i was just wondering why the ants have completely sealed them selfs in the test tube? I've read somewhere that they are used to the test tube environment and will move out in their own time but i just wanted to double check as their seems to be alot of people who know what their talking about here lol

ants always seal the test tube if they have the chance to if you give them dirt or sand they will fill it up to protect the colony :)
