I am totally new to the hobbie and really don't understand the issue with AC... I would like to understand it better. I would love to interview professionals like snelling

 

 

 

 

I think this is a great idea, I would listen to it! No Ants Canada though. He is more entertainment then actual helpful ant keeping. I think people like Tarheel Ants formicarium maker, Mack. I also think Aus Ants would be great to interview.

Although I don't want to start a whole AntsCanada debate here, regardless of how controversial he is in the ant community for what he prioritizes, he's still one of the biggest faces in antkeeping today, and I'd be lying if I said he didn't drag me in the hobby to do further research and the like. Maybe during the interview you can bring up the community's concerns with his recent content, since I think getting up-to-date answers about our concerns with him would do more good than bad.

Another idea, maybe you could also invite professionals onto the podcast, like Snelling over here. 

 


ohhh I love that one too

thanks man!

Yeah I think there is a place for one.  A little over a year ago myself and another member worked on making a podcast for antkeeping. We did some work on it, set up some joint accounts, and produced several documents out lining episodes as well as some guest line ups. But ultimately never ended up recording a full episode as life stuff and scheduling got in the way. Frankly I'm surprised no one has done it in a serious fashion yet.

 

 

If you do go through with it, I'll be sure to listen, good luck!

That sounds like it’ll be cool and I bet a lot of people will listen.

Ok so, we can explain the whole AC issue in like a separate thread. Mostly about it’s how he treats his ants, his formicariums, GAN, and how he promotes keeping Red Imported Fire Ants.
My Ants:
(x1) Campontous semitstaceus ~20 workers, 1 Queen
(x1) Camponotus vicinus ~10 workers, 1 Queen (all black variety)
(x1) Tetramorium immigrans ~100 workers, 1 Queen
(x1) Myrmercocystus mexicanus -1 Queen
(x2) Mymercocystus mimcus -1 Queen
(x1) Mymercocystus testaceus ~45 workers, 1 Queen

Oh I’m just saying you can make a topic on your questions about AC or we can make a info page (that hopefully won’t lead to arguements as it’s controversial)
