Today I was transferring my Pseudomyrmex gracilis queen to a new test tube with straws in it to mimic twigs. After I removed her I noticed one small egg in the old test tube. She didn’t want anything to do with it after I moved her. I hope she likes the new tube and will continue to lay eggs.

She probably will! She may just need to settle down first. Keep her in the dark for a few days without any disturbance and that should do the trick.

Thanks. I’ll leave her alone so more and see how that works.
