Hello, looks like a very helpful community here. I'v been looking to get into ant keeping for awhile and this looks like a great resource. Looking forward to learning new stuff again.

Nice, just caught my first queen. Still has its wings and one looks damaged so maybe it never flew. I caught it late in the day so I'm holding out hope she was fertilized. From what I can tell she is a myrmica or formica of some kind? I gave her a wet cotton ball for now and she seams to be fine with the current set up. Will move into a test tube tomorrow when I acquire them. Best pics I could take for now.
