Hey folks, I have free queens and colonies! I am moving suddenly, so pleeeease I am trying to rehome the following queens and colonies before I move!
-3 Camponotus chromaiodes queens, one at pupae, one at larvae, one with eggs!
-1 Camponotus americanus queen with eggs
-1 Solenopsis carolinensis colony, collected wild. There are a couple hundred workers. Comes with a rubbermaid outworld.
-1 small Temnothorax cf. pergandei colony, 5 workers plus brood.
-1 admittedly probably infertile Camponotus nearcticus queen. Had her a few weeks with no brood.
I also have 1 Aphaenogaster rudis group sp. colony, about 30 workers. They’re in a THA mini-hearth so I want some compensation (about $30) for that nice nest.

I will drive them to you if needed, but I will charge for gas for the drive.

If you want multiple of them, that’s fine too. They need homes urgently.

 

Ants are homed now! Thank you!!!

Wish I could get some but I’m in CA : ( but I hope somebody comes along and takes them. I wish you best!

AntsExodus might be interested...

[Arroavantho]

Oh I see, they're a seller. I'll message them, thanks Manitobant!

True, but he has quite an impressive personal collection. Some he may end up selling, and others he may keep.

[Arroavantho]

If that's the case, that's fine. As long as they find homes, I am happy.

[AntsExodus]

I will likely be merging the solenopsis colony with my solenopsis carolinses colony or perhaps may breed them together. I will be keeping the aphenogaster and definitely the camponotus

I will not likely be selling any of the ants you gave me so do not worry I will take good care of them

[Arroavantho]

Awesome! So glad you were able to home them. Now I have to restart my ants again in Mobile, hehe.
