Hey All, I am going to "get rid" of this colony which definitely needs more space. It has around 1.000 workers and a huge brood which probably equals the number of workers. The colony started from a single queen caught 3 autumns ago. I am going to ship it just in Europe, in UK would be better and in London would be great because you can come here to collect it. If you are not from UK take a look at the law of your country because there are some countries where shipping animals, by post, even if they are insects, is not allowed. You can see this colony in this 2 weeks old video on youtube The colony comes with everything you see in that video except the foraging area if I have to ship it, otherwise, if you are going to collect it here, I will give you also that. I think that's all, feel free to ask me any question by private message or here if you think it would be helpful also for other people. The price is fixed at £60.00 plus shipping (I will ship just with the fastest method). Crematogaster scutellaris is a great species because is very strong, fast growing, has a very fast recruitment system, eats everything and is very aggressive. I do not feel to suggest it to beginners or better, not with these dimensions. It is a good species for beginners if they start from a single queen. Now that should be all ! Alessandro

That is a lovely colony from just one queen, I am sure it will sell soon especially as the set up is included.

That is a lovely colony from just one queen, I am sure it will sell soon especially as the set up is included. Thank you Wood! By the way I was checking some Royal Mail prices to ship outside The UK, if you guys are interested in taking a look, this is the link: www.royalmail.com/personal/international-delivery/international-tracked-signedI would go for this tracked-signed shipping to avoid any issues. It takes 5-7 days to be delivered (in Europe). I think the parcel would weight between 1,5kg and 2kg (maybe less but I don't think it is going to be more than 2kg) because of the nest so It would be anyway less than £ 19,00. For what concern shipping inside The UK the price would be, for a 2kg parcel: £ 6,55 if you want to go for "Royal Mail Signed For 1st Class stamps" £ 11,00 if you want to go for "Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed by 1pm" Then if you have any particular needs just tell me. Thank you Alessandro
