Building an extensive 50 gallon west-coast forest terrarium. Ants included! We'll see how it goes. Might make a video.

A pavement ant walks into the bar. She asks for one beer, and one for the road.

If anybody notices this, js know that I was really faking my persona. I’ve been Bugging3out all along, just a lil older. Got a bad reputation and decided to just make a new account. See y’all!

    By the way, I meant like 2-3 years ago when I made the new account and abandoned my Bugging3out account. I figured I wanted to leave social ant keeping and wanted to leave on a peace of mind without y’all actually thinking I’m like 25 or wtv 😭. And I’m like deadass 13 too y’all got bamboozled

Constructed an island terrarium. My finest work, other than my Oboe d'amore-harpsichord duet.

Caught a Camponotus queen! (Not allowed to keep her, though. I'll sell her.)

Found some Manica invidia queens wandering around! Normal for lower mainland BC apparently. Will try to catch some for selling.
