My first ant setup for the time being as I look for a nice Formicarium to buy/make for my beautiful Honey pot ants

 

Update**  Day 1). I fed them for the first time tonight after receiving them yesterday. I put a Small apple piece on top of a tinfoil tray along with a drop of honey for my honey pots which I placed in the outworld. For my crematogastors I place a drop of honey on a tin foil sheet in there test tube. Picture Posted below.

**Notes: I wonder if the Drop of honey are too big for the crematogastors and If i should only feed my Honey pots Honey or Apple in that same night.

Quite nice for a starting setup.

 

Here are some tutorials (keep in mind you will want places the repletes can hang upside down from)  http://www.formicult...of-handy-links/

Check the marketplace on this site and other online locations for various purchasing options.
