Little update on some of my colonies.
All of my girls are well and are in their strongest growing phase.
The Lasius niger are my fastest growing colony.
They go completely insane with brood production.
The colony is now so large and active, it is really hard to take good pictures since they have smeared the glass with waste and dirty feed.
So I apologize that the pictures are blurry.
However, as I have observed previously in this journal, these ants are my tidiest and cleanest of my ants.
They have a couple of tidy, well organized waste disposal sites in their outworld and will use these religiously.
They are the easiest to clean- most of my other colonies dispose of waste willy-nilly and much less organized.
And the worst offenders are the Camponotus lateralis and the Messor barbarus, who are just simply messy.
So many eggs and larvae!
