wow they just came just after i had posted that!
any way it looks like hundereds of workers and and they have come in a nest which is so cool. I am yet to see a queen. I have see 5 puepea and two large larvea and amazingly only about 10 dead ants.
update 10 minutes later:
they are eating loads of honey and are munching on a huge spider
they have started spinning with their larvea and it is awesome!!
and just saw a queen.
update:
they are nest biulding now
they have started under a large bit of moos and in a layer of reptile bark and dry grass.
temprature:28C
humidity: 60-70
update:27/08/10
They have made a good nest and are still nest biulding
Do you think i should take the old nest that they came in out??
As they are not really using it apart from sitting on top and eating a locust.
They have had a large locust three small ones and an adult cricket.

They are still frantically makeing there nest but have now got a good main chamber and most large larvea seem to be there and also a few cocoons.

totalnumber of tanks:5 (not including garbage chambers.
