A loooooooooong time since the last update. Bad news is that the queens of this species are easy to found but sometimes have bad genes. Eventually the queen killed the newborn workers as they were enclosing and never made it past larvae stage since. I contacted the seller about some brood to giver to her but they never responded. I continue to feed her to this day crickets fruit flies and dubias with the occasional seeds yet she won't lay eggs. The nest I made will be put to good use eventually but I haven't made any improvements to it since around december.


We don’t talk about that
