I have many colonies but I am running out of room so I am selling many of my small colonies and one large colonies. I will be releasing them by the end of the year so get them now! I will ship to anywhere in Virginia and I offer full refunds besides shipping costs. All money made is used to buy new formicariums and ant supplies.

DOA policy: if they come dead I will only refund if you alert me within 12 hours of arrival and a video of you opening them.

Shipping policy: will only sells to Virginia and contiguous 48 if buyer has permit. Shipping costs ~$10 average but if you buy a lot it may be more. Pickup free in Charlottesville.

Ants:


Aphaenogaster sp $20 each - 1 available

15-30 workers

Test tube setup

Difficulty: Easy

Growth: Medium fast
Size: 4-6 mm



Tetramorium immigrans $15 each - 1 available

10-15 workers

Difficulty: Very Easy

Growth: fast

Size: 1-5 mm

Have you sold anything? I gave up for the year.

Have you sold anything? I gave up for the year.

I sold a Formica Pallidefulva queen, Camponotus Castaneus colony, and a Pheidole queen. It's been harder to sell ants lately. I still don't know why.

New large Aphaenogaster colony for sale.

Updated. Tetra's got workers! I looked at ebay just to see what ants were for sale (not too buy anything because of laws. Just to see competition) and they all say they are feeder insects is this just a way to get around the laws about interstate shipping?

Yup. That’s why I call them scumbags. It’s ruined a fun hobby.

[Virginian_ants]

Ugh I hate scammers and liars in the ant keeping world. Most ant keepers are kids so that makes it worse.

I willing to trade for nests, outworlds, and some types of ants if you have other trades pm me.

I'm going to be releasing the larger Aphaenogaster colony within the next 2 weeks so buy them soon. Their price is lowered until they are released. The small ones are on the verge of a population explosion and a Lasius aphidicola colony is coming soon.
