Hi, this might sound stupid...but my husband used to keep ants he absolutely loved them. Unfortunately he decided he couldn't keep them anymore about 5 years ago and he is looking at setting up again. I would love to surprise him at Christmas with a set up and let him choose his own ants. I know absolutely nothing about ants other than they're small So without sounding thick, I am looking to spend about £150 on an initial set up and Let it go from there. Any and all advice would be appreciated. All I know is he liked leaf cutters. That is the extent of my knowledge! Thanks claire

Hi Claire and welcome to the Ant Hill. There is no such thing as a stupid question when it comes to the hobby of ant keeping. If it's leaf cutters you think your husband might want, I am not sure if the ant selling sites have a ready made set up; but we do have a few guys here who have made their own, such as Adam who has a journal on his Atta ants. It might be handy if you have a look at the ant links just underneath the banner and see what formicariums are for sale, then maybe decide what species you can keep. I am sure you will find lots of helpful info here and we all love to answer any questions you may have, as we are a very friendly bunch.
