Hey everyone, I've known about the forum for some time now, but didn't have that much time to check it out with an important exam. Now that that's over and with a 1 month holiday looming, I'm gonna start getting active in ant keeping again.

My signature should explain most about me, and I don't think I need to reveal any more than that. Plus, I believe most of you already saw me on another forum ( we all know which one! ), and if not, I'll be as active as I can in this forum.

Glad you joined us over here.

Welcome!

 

Which ants do you currenlty keep?

Currently, I have :
-Camponotus colony ( black one ), oldest and biggest colony I have.
-A Tetramorium queen which raised two workers, but both died and now she's just sitting there with no brood for over a months now.
-Iridomyrmex colony, quite new with around 14 workers and a nice brood pile.
-An queen awaiting identification, with a pile of eggs which hasn't developed at all for around 2 months.
-An Odontomachus worker, caught in my house. Thought she was a queen, so I'm gonna release her soon.

Not all that impressive. I'm still waiting to find a few Pheidole queens to start a colony together to replace the one that died out after 1 year, with around 400 workers.

Hope that doesn't happen to me, I have a Pheidole colony that just reached about 400 workers.

Welcome! I'll have to check out your photobucket site. I would like to see some species from other countries.

Thanks for the welcome guys! I've browsed through most of the forum, and there's quite some familiar names here!
