ANTSTORE World of Ants

[Kale^^]

I received one healthy colony of Pheidole pallidula from McK today.
Contains queen, + 15-20workers. They came in a mini test tube, which was drieing up so i put them a new one.

Some pictures (bad quality, those are SMALL!)

queen + some workers

workers trying to break a dead lasius niger virgin apart.

then the queen came in and BOOM! the head+thorax were separated from the abdomen. Good job!

They are doing well. They haven't yet produced any workers after arriving, but there was very little brood when they came, and now there is some pupa and larva&eggs.

mine are just mental atm.. they have produced loads this summer. I think they also have like 20 soilders.. your in for a treat kale... feed them up and you'll soon have a massive colony.
