I heard they might vacate when they have enough workers but so far all they've done is build a masssive dirt and sand wall in the tube...
Recently got them a foraging box and small formicarium connected by tubes, decided they're going in the foraging box since they were just in a fish tank.
Anyway they're back to building the wall.
Feels cruel but I took the wall down and tapped a lot of ants and eggs out(no casualties) but they just went back in, even though they were right next to a nice darker safe area.
I've since scooped out sand and dirt from their wall, is this a bad idea or will it encourage them to think the tube isn't that safe? It's really quite a big tube so well over half the length of the foraging box, takes up a lot of space.
I feel like they'll never want to move
