First of all, welcome to the forums. Second, since it is the time of the year where there aren't many nuptial flights, people might not have anything to offer. also, there might not be many people in your area. If nobody replies for a long time, you can probably wait until spring, where there are more nuptial flights. Also, you have to put your location in your profile. thanks!


Ants I am keeping:

 none for now, planning on being more active this year

Hi, I'm a little upstate, but like antsandmore said, this time of year there aren't any ants flying so everything everyone has is what they've kept from last year. Come spring/summer there are a few reputable sellers in NY that will probably have some though. Do you travel upstate at all?

I live in Brooklyn but don’t have any ants to trade/sell rn, I will hopefully have caught some winter ants and some other species (maybe camponotus) by April

I'm still looking guys, thanks!

I'm planning on catching Nylanderia queens this spring and Prenolepis if possible, and I can also collect Tapinoma and Aphaenogaster eventually. If you have Discord add me Arman#6688 and you can join the server http://discord.gg/ants (link might not work eventually but it should rn) which would be a bit easier to coordinate on

hi I'm new to the forum and I'm looking to buy a queen ant in nyc, I'm looking for something beginners friendly with 0-5 workers, thank you in advance!

I have a Camponotus pennsylvanicus. queen with 1 worker and 1 larva I could sell you but they aren’t doing well but if I get them to recover I might sell them. By that time I would probably have caught some other species
