No, and I always wait at least a year before ordering from a new company.

 

I helped him hash out a few ideas and parts of his formicariums, and he hasn't really kept any ants until this January.

 

I would wait until others post reviews.

He seems pretty smart, and I think his ideas for formicariums are really nice. I am interested in hearing some reviews. As for me personally, I'm too picky to buy formicariums from anyone; I prefer to make all my own stuff.

I don't think he has the experience for me to trust my colonies with his nests and THA builds what I need and like

His ideas seem pretty cool and innovative. I entered the raffle for a free byFormica formicarium, if I win I'll let you know how it is.

Yeah, I love what that guy is doing. I can't wait to see what he comes up with and how well it works. It seems some people have a little trouble accepting him and his ideas, mainly people who seem overly loyal to some of the other people selling ant products, but I think that will change eventually.

His site looks sickkkkkk. I'm not 100% sure about how he plans to water it?

 

Maybe with all this formicarium competition we'll get more competitive prices. They are all still too expensive for me to afford.

Precisely. Not only that, but even better products, which this guy really seems to be striving for.
