Queen Pandora has moved her nesting site to a small chamber I had dug underneath the glass panel covered in tin foil. I took a sneaky look to check up on her today and I noticed there's a very small larvae along with 6 eggs.
The development has been slow but I'm happy with the queens progress.

Pandora has been going steady. I haven't found any information about their brood development. From what I now know its extremely slow growing. I've had her for months and I'm only at the stage of having small larvae, could take another two or three months before I can get a worker. Shes a beautiful ant though and I'm just happy that she is alive and well Paraponera clavata - small Larvae by che hawkins, on Flickr

Not much of an update, the larvae grow continuously at a slow but steady rate. That's fine with me though! The dead crickets that I place into the feeding dish look more chewed and drained than usual. Hopefully this all points to Pandora feeding along with healthy development for her brood.
I shall take a photo of the larvae tonight during feeding hour.
