Hello.

I have a question! .
How oft does a queen lays eggs, and I'm talking about a Lasius Niger queen?(:
And how many at the time, and can u see on her if she wanted to lay eggs? (sorry for my bad english)
Hope u can help d:
cya !

She lays as much eggs as she or the colony can handle. If the colony is small she will lay eggs in periods but if they colony is bigger she will lay eggs every day.

[FredeP]

Okay thx - my colonies are only one 0-20 workers, so it's now so big(:
- but can u see if she is in a periods she will lay eggs ?

[JimmyVe]

You can not tell it buy looking at the queen, but if you see a pile of eggs she is laying.

[FredeP]

Okay thx(:
- how high can I set the temperture?
Can I set it over 28 grades?d:

[gabranth]

no there temprature doesn't need to be over 28 degree's around 25 degree's is enough for them

[FredeP]

If the temprature is on 30 degree's they will grop faster?d:
And that's good right ?

[gabranth]

yes but not by much and it might harm them

[FredeP]

some of the brood my queen have is yellow/orange, and it's now a cocoon? do u know why?d:

[gabranth]

they were yellow orange at the larvae stage?

[FredeP]

I can't see if it's larva or eggs, but I think it's both. But I have one cocoon(:

[gabranth]

what do you mean by brood larva and egg's or workers?

[FredeP]

I mean, that my larva and eggs are yellow/light orange, and I don't mean it should be that colour? And do u know why it's that?d:

[gabranth]

strange there usually white i haven't got a clue about that

[FredeP]

And it can't be because it's to hot, for the other queen have white brood?
Hope someone can help!(:
