Hello ant keepers!  

I have previously posted about doing possible interviews with ant keepers in a digital format.   I am overwhelmed by the positive responses and you'll see more on that soon.   

 

The Point of THIS post (please delete if not allowed) is that we're going to be posting/ live-streaming these interviews via YouTube https://www.youtube....BEEnblcswudWpSQvia that page.  They will be unedited and include some audience Q&A at the end.   These videos will include the keeping and acquisition of 'microfauna' which is kind of a broad brush for me to paint with.  So far I'm including isopods, springtails, dart frogs, feeder insects, roaches, ANTS-of course-, and smallish reptiles and amphibians.   It's a broad brush to allow us to do more interviews and kind of 'cross pollinate' hobbies.   I'm a firm believer in broadening horizons to enhance your knowledge/ experience

On TOP of that we are planning an isopod/ bioactivity related Virtual Convention, gleefully referred to as PODCON.   That will be either late May or Early June.  Still locking down dates.   The CON will feature vendors offering Convention discounts (Maybe?  I JUST came up with that so... we'll see) and virtual rooms with guest speakers.   For THIS particular convention we are focused on isopods, substrates, bioactivity, etc.   All linking back to isopods for the most part.   While this doesn't specifically speak to ant keepers, there might be useful information there for you or someone you know.   

I'll post more info as I get it and as they come up.   Know that the "pilot" where my co-host and I interview each other in much the same way we will be interviewing our guests.   

 

Again, if this is not allowed to post here, please take it down but I DID look at the rules first and think this is in the best possible spot for this post.  

 

Thanks in advance and I hope at least a few of you are intrigued enough to stop by Tuesday to check us out.
