Those are some cool ants. Can you recount how and when you found the queen? My New Year’s resolution for 2020 is to find Pheidole!

Pheidole bicarinata (Colony #1)
12-22-19
We have pupae! They got a whole cricket last night before I went to bed, and when I checked today the entire cricket had been processed, and their larvae had doubled in size! Small die off, now at 65-70 workers. Plenty of brood though.

They have a small larva now, and 9 eggs. The hosts still don't suspect a thing...
