As in either next month, or in less than 6 months.
how old are these again
Alza these were caught this year. Veromessor pergandei make massive colonies.
i see
Do you see the queen? I think this species is going to go into my big panel formicarium.
Yes, she's still pretty easy to spot.
how old are these again
All dates and information are included in the journal, so the colony would be seven months old.
seven months! what do you feed ?!?!?
Messor pergandei make big colonies. The eat insects and seeds. Also, they obviously like Byformica formula, and sugar water.
In case you have not seen it for a third time, here is an image of a colony's mound that is not even mature.
i want to know specifically what dsp senpai feeds them
Well, figure it out. In the pictures you can see insect remains, Byformica blue formula, and hummingbird nectar. Probably other stuff too but whatever.
that may not be all he feeds them. Also dsp how many queens did you catch of this species
This is his only colony, also it says at the beginning of the journal. read stuff instead of just pictures.
"On March 31st 2014, I found six Veromessor pergandei dealates". thanks reading works.
Yes. Reading things would be ideal on forums such as this.
That sucks, that formicarium looked like it would be cool to see active with all those ants. Especially considering the amount of time and effort you had put into it!
It's good that the queen did not die. As long as she lives, the colony will continue on.
I really like that nest design.
Thanks. I just need to find out exactly what chemical killed them, and where it is exactly. I think I most likely already have that answer.
Interesting that you seem to be having issues with plasti-dip...I've used it almost a dozen times now to coat the exposed areas of firebrick blocks without consequence. Many instances I forced the ants to move with less than a day of cure time, while a strong odor still lingered, no problem.
