Hey! So, I've been keeping this species for about a year now and has been very successful! They're at about their 100 workers limit. Every day I feed them sugar water, normally they'll accept this but the sugar has to be in low amounts. They won't accept it if there's too much sugar. For feeding them, I put in small crushed mealworms or crushed crickets and they get at the juices. Hope I helped!

Keeps:
Myrmecina americana-1
Camponotus noveboracensis-3
Temnothorax curvispinosus-1
Stigmatomma Pallipes-2
Solenopsis molesta-4
Aphenogaster fulva-7
Paratrechina longicornis-1
Ponera pennsylvanica-3
That's really nice! I would absolutely love to see pictures as they are very rarely documented. Mine only have eggs right now.
