I wish I could have these species, gotta wait for next year when I have my license though, my parents don't want to drive me. Good luck with those queens, its good to see that they're doing so well!

Oftentimes fecal excretions are orange, but keep an eye on it.
Exciting news! I hope they continue to prosper!
I watch Futurama and I approve of this thread.
The lady herself
I added cornflakes today, that's what that yellow crap is on top
Tending the garden
Good the eggs are still there.
Here she is smelling her eggs, what a good mother
The back of the fungus
That orangeish brown? probably her feces
The royal toilet
Its a lot easier to see the eggs here
Egg close up
She has come to say hello
She got camera shy
This picture really shows off how beautiful she is
Is that the missing egg?
Oh well hot dang, there it is!
So yeah eggs are accounted for, fungus is growing, she's adding substrate to it and she's looking healthy. So far decent progress
Still can't find those dang larvae, I' hoping I'm just blind and they will pop up later.
REALLY?! I thought only Atta had majors and super majors. That is awesome news! Thanks for the infoAcromyrmex does have majors actually, and they can get quite large.

Definitely not!
That's excellent! I'm rooting for these guys. Once you get past the complexities of keeping their fungus alive, it seems like feeding them is relatively easy. Cornflakes! LOL
