Here is a picture of the colony today- the queen sits on the new egg pile, and further to the left, there is another pile.

I am amazed how resilient these girls are.

Man this is awesome! I can't wait to see this colony growing more! It would be awesome to have a vivarium set-up or something like that. I have never tried parasitic ants yet but it sounds like a really cool idea.
