Larger colonies are more enthusiastic about food.

Nice looking set up. I remember when mine we’re cute like that and now they’re out of control. How warm are yours? Mine don’t eat much if they’re below 75F.

Cable install under formicarium and now tetramorium feed every 2 days with protein. It's like a gremlin.

New update. All is ok. Lowe proteins and brood rise. The only problem I have is humidity, I think is too high. Branches what be inside I must remove because start white mold on.
