I bought this colony about two weeks ago, first thing I noticed is how small they are with the queen about same size as soldiers. I was really worried about them escaping, but so far so good. Cannot see any eggs in the 2 weeks I've had them, but with them being so small it's really hard to tell. I bought the colony with 40 to 60 workers, I'm sure this has reduced a bit. Just hope the queen starts laying soon or they might just die away. I'm trying crickets meal worms roaches rice sugar water they don't seem to like any of them that much just a few workers at a time on the food, maybe because its still small colony will add some photos they are not great sorry ant photos I'm finding is not that easy hopefully will get better with time.

The eggs of this species are tiny but the queens are productive so you'll see them sooner or later. Feed them often and they should do fine.

Hi could you close the thread please the queen died after about 5 months, her workers died off faster than produced new ones I might give them a go sometime again.
