Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!  

I just wanted to take a few minutes to thank all of you, I came into antkeeping as a true beginner, and made sooooo many mistakes.  Mistaking tetramorium for camponotus, not knowing how to care for them, etc.  You guys always helped me without judgement, (unless I did something really stupid, lol) and I felt very welcome here.  I am still somewhat a beginner, but I have learned soooo much on here, and make some great friends.  

So, thanks.  I really do appreciate it.  :)

 

So everyone eat some good food, enjoy the festivities, and make sure to save some turkey for your tetras.  

 

Stay safe everyone.

Devi

happy thanksgiving all!


Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8

Pfft. To heck with safety! I had one of my biggest Thanksgiving dinners yet!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. I hope you stuffed yourselves full of turkey. I sure did. :lol:
