Hello all, just wanted to share this colony that got their first workers in the last 2 days. Maybe Camponotus punctulatus.

Very nice. Wish my Camponotous colony looked like that. Looks like you going to have some more workers here real soon.

I gave them a drop of honey, hopefully they will thrive =D It's very cool to see these really small colonies.
