A Nucleus is a massive nest, though.
Yeah, and they take a while to make when you order custom ones made for your exact species. I don't expect to receive it for a bit.

Huh you can order custom ones? Didn't know that. How'd you do it?

Simply pick your nest from this page, order the correct size for your species. (Tiny/small, or medium/large.) Then in the comments field at checkout, specify what species the colony is for. Mack will customize the nest accordingly. You can even specify how you want the outworld decorations to be arranged.

That's cool. Thanks I may order one. I'd like to get a mini hearth for some honeypots soon.

This colony just keeps growing. Very impressive growth rate this year.

My favorite queens/colony’s:
Pheidole Tysoni, Selonopis Molesta, Brachymyrmex Depilis, Tetramorium Immagrians, Prenolepis Imparis, Pheidole Bicirinata
Colony is still doing well. It seems like there is a bit of a gap between the latest eggs/small larvae and the current pupae. Hoping they aren't slowing down. Really excited to move them to their new home once it arrives.

This is my favorite species like I always say. My favorite thing to do is brood boost them. I have done it to most of my colonies to reach a few hundred workers within two years. I believe this one I did.
This colony isn't even a year old, and started with just the single queen. All the workers are hers. Hoping I can find another this year and try boosting her!

Got the colony moved over to their new type III Nucleus. I only snapped the one photo, but I'll take some better ones soon.

These are a blast to keep and seem to thrive in captivity. I have hundreds of workers from a queen I caught May 2020.
