So today I looked in at my growing Pogomyrmex rugosus colony that live in a tubs and tubes setup. Now they have two tubes one that they live in and have brood and the queen in and one that is empty. However the weird behavior is that the empty tube isn’t empty, they’re using it as a secondary seed storage. They have collected lots of seeds and stored them there, they also have seed store in the other tube that they live in and it isn’t that big so why would they make two small seed stores instead of one big one? Could this be evidence of ants knowing not to put all their eggs (seeds) in one basket?
