ANTSTORE World of Ants

Here is a cute Formica subsericea family I woke up from hibernation recently. They're are living in an AntsCanada Pumice Stone Ant Nest, available at my store at Hyperlinks sind nur für registrierte Nutzer sichtbar. I really look forward to the growth of this family. They're visibly bigger in size than my Formica fusca ants, and just as active!

Here is the family feeding from a drop of honey to give them a boost of energy after a long three and a half months of hibernation.



And a video of the above:

The queen... I find her exoskeleton to be gorgeous!























I keep them in the dark using this cover in front of the nest.

More photos of feeding them honey. The queen is stunning!
