After all these years, ( since I was 14 and I'm now 59!! ) I have had varying luck with boosting the different Pogonomyrmex's with brood of close species. Just Pogonomyrmex with Pogonomyrmex.

Never had any rejected or harmed.

I'm needing boosts for a Subnitidus colony.

Please post amounts and prices, thanks!

I have thought about getting milton ant farm pogonomyrmex refills because they have some brood and for a couple tubes it's not a bad price.


We don’t talk about that

I didn't know they had brood? That's an interesting idea!

There filled with callows, old workers, dirt and brood. I would make sure the ones your buying have brood though because I'm not completely sure all of them do. Better to see if someone has some on here and if not then get those.
