Honeypot queens are back in stock but there's only one colony of each species! I decided to let go of one more Myrmecocystus mexicanus and Myrmecocystus mimicus.

Sorry no, it's just an example of what they look like. I'll replace the photo so people don't get confused.

Hey everyone, I have a Myrmecocystus mexicanus queen with a slightly squished gaster. She's been like this since I caught her. She's doing fine though and she's fertile. She has two workers and 4 medium larvae.

 

Since she's not perfect I'll give a discount of 10$. I usually sell M. mexicanus for $65 but I'll drop it down to $55.
