Great to see, your time lapse  Messors certainly grow well given the right environment, warmth and food  Pleased to see them on the increase Shane. Our Messors are growing and spreading too  I'm running out of room for their tanks! |

They removed it all "the dirt in nest" and made a well mess in foragin tank when they started it and blocking tube all time. With testing to see if queen would move from her old home as she did, I'll be adding another nest, They do like there nest a bit damp and it gets hard once they remove all the dirt to keep it a bit damp and from drying out. I'm goin to go for a upright nest I'm saving up for, for last 4 months of worrying of them getting over populated with is about now for there set up even though they do like to be cramped, I do not fully trust anything I make and Messors do like to have a-rome around If they get out and most of my family I'm with don't like them  so have to keep them a bit sealed. |
