I will temporarily discontinue this, just until I can get more fungus. The next time this is updated is either when I get more fungus, or when queens start dying.

Probably, I am planning to camp out there, leaving on the day that a thunderstorm seems to be leaving, hopefully I can catch them flying like Drew did, and maybe catch a few other species, like Pheidole and Camponotus fragilis, and Dorymyrmex bicolor. :) I already came to accept the fact these were done for, because originally, getting fungus from Drew was just talk, so I thought they were done for such a longer time ago, I am glad I had this opportunity to see them with fungus in person, and if I can't get more fungus, maybe next year. :)

It seems that fungus is essential.

Do you plan on getting that to them as soon as its available ? in this kind of dire situation i don't think you can afford to wait any longer.
