ANTSTORE World of Ants

Some colonies and queens have yellow/light orange eggs and white one i have 3 cataglyphis queens and 1 lays white eggs and the other 2 lay yellowy eggs

[FredeP]

But why do they that, will they alway lay yellow eggs? And are the ants there come out of that brood, will they be differant?d:

I can not tell you why some have white eggs and some yellow, maybe it is just the food they are having. As long as they are okay i don't see any problem with the eggs being not white.

For the record, some species have even black eggs. (Ectatomma ruidum)

[FredeP]

Okay, I give her honey? so when I stop with that, they will be white again? or will they always be yellow/orange?d:

[miszt]

i really wuldnt worry about it

[FredeP]

okay, but I can see her new eggs are more white.

[JimmyVe]

Good for you. The color of the eggs are not a problem, as long as the turn into workers.

[FredeP]

Okay (:
- But is it right if I set the temperature up, the brood will grow faster?d;

I have 2 queens, and one of them have a bigger gaster than the other, and it's because she will be a better queen than the other queen, with a little bit gaster?d; hope u can help, so thx ;$

[JimmyVe]

With some species yes. But it is not good to leave the colony on a high temperature to long. Just try to give them the same as the would have in nature, don't force things.

[Balthazar]

well me deary depends how deep her nest is, thats why the bigger the farm, the bigger the colony!!

enjoy,

I caught 2 queen ants in spain and there camponotus but dunno which one one of them lays white eggs and the other yellow eggs I think there the same species but maybe the one with yellow eggs is infected or something

[kashmir79]

just because of the egg colours doesnt mean their infected. Most likely Different Species

[JimmyVe]

Ore not, sometimes they lay white eggs, sometimes yellow.
