I used to have rocks like that in my outworlds. It looks cool until the colony starts hiding in them.

Great! Even though colony two has had a shortage of brood, colony one should have two hundred plus workers at the end of the year, and colony two should have over one hundred workers at the end of the year.

Okay, so today I checked on Queen Abigail's colony, and they had put their brood pile in their outworld ( because I can never seem to get the heating cable right underneath their test tube) and the thing I saw was amazing!

They had the biggest brood pile I have ever seen!

Hope everyone has some great holidays, and a happy new Anting year!
