My wife brought some honey pearls home the other day for coffee or tea. They are crystalized honey with nothing added. Would they work as a food source?

Since honey has to be replaced every few days, I thought this might last longer.

Thoughts?

theres no reason why they shuldnt enjoy them, however they wont stay dry for very long unless your ants are in a very dry tank, honey (any hi-sugar substance) absorbs water very quickly, i'd expect it to be 'normal' honey overnight in a tank with more than 20% humidity

Nice thinking.

Let us know how it works for you

I don't have a queen yet, so I'm not sure how well a colony would live off it.

I do have one harvester ant left over from a Uncle Milton order. She seems to really like it. She has also single handedly dug a rather large tunnel system.
