i wish i had the time, space and experience to keep colonies like this as major workers are so incredible to look at and i would love to keep a colony with major or soldiers so at the moment i am quite jealous of you

Be patient. I also started of with easier species, you need to. Than you have some experience and you can try out the harder ones. They take more time to carry and cost a bit more (they have no hibernation, the exotic ones i mean, some south European ants do and they also have majors)

[Skippy]

Yes Sith ,dont worry ,be happy. You can try some Messor or Cataglyphis ,it is not hard to keep. Cataglyphis is like Camponotus. Or some exotic species ,who dont need hibernation like Polyrhachis. It is not cheap in Antstore and it is to keep like some Formica. Very easy to keep I think.

omg I wanted to watch it the 3rd time but its been deleted...

@ skippy and jimmyve: i will wait a few years before i attempt to keep any form of exotic species for now my lasius niger and formica fusca will have to keep me company:)

That is a good idea Sith. It is better to get more experience before you start up with exotic ants.

[sithmaster676]

yes i have friends on a different forum who have started with a exotic species such as messor barbarus and have killed an innocent colony.
i would never want that to happen

nice video Skippy and again i like the music and yet again you make me even more jealous
see some of the views you have i think of a formica colony in a ytong i will not be able to do because as soon as i uncover the test tube my formica fusca colony is in the queen goes mental including the workers
Sithmaster676

[Skippy]

Yes ,Formica species are very sensitive on light. I have my ants in half dark ,so they are not much stressed when I go to making photos ,because they are a bit ready to slow light and they continue in normal colony activities

Very nice Skippy, looks like the Camponotus blandus sp. are doing well. Did you captured new queens ? (in the tubes ? )
