ANTSTORE World of Ants

hello, the nest is laying down. its so bad its forming big drops. iv taken the heat away for now as i was worried abot them drowning. i made another lid so i could quickly change it. but this disturbs them and it seems to build up to big drops every 4 or 5 hours.

i thought air circulation might help, i think cornish crispa sell that gauze stuff, it will take a few days so i hope that she survives with no heating until then. she did survive a week with no heating so i guess it will be ok.

i might try to make a nest thats standing up and test it first its just moving her about all the time, she has just moved into the nest from the tube i dont know how i could get her into the new one.

okay, now i think i can follow you.

You have a lid on top of the out world that is closed all the time ? It is best to use a lid that allow air into the farm.

i dont really have an out world, what iv done is cut a section of the lid off and put it back over one of the ant rooms. so i can just lift it up to put food in. my cameras bust so i cant take a picture.

I think i understand it. Than it is normal that you have so many condensation. You (and the ants) need ventilation in the nest. Normally they get most of the air from the out world but if you don't have any you need to make some ventilation in the nest.
Btw: it is better to have an out world.
