update.

Camponotus americanus Will be added this week. Several of my colonies will be rehoused in my own  3D formicariums in 5-7 days. This will increase the price of course.

this is a well managed shop, which is unusual, actually. you have a large selection of ants available, and you tell people when you are out of stock. i have apparently just nominated myself as a shop reviewer this second :D , so i would give you a 5 star rating and would buy many of your colonies if i only lived there! great prices!

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8
