Because the giant workers attacking the still semi alive insect would be one of the most entertaining things ever

But we wouldn't be able to see it with pictures, there would have to be a video. It also depends on if they have a outworld or not. A semi alive mealworm in the tube could cause serious damage to the brood.

All my ca02 colonies have outworlds, and at least 15 workers.

Can't wait to see the update. I am getting my own 02 queen tomorrow!

Nice! Love those Giants!

Also camponotous is smart about they're brood. The nanitics of my old colony brought in the mealworm so the queen could kill it. There was always workers with brood moving so the worm couldn't hurt the brood. The other workers helped the queen engage the mealworm

This C. Ca02 has 20ish workers, and I’m waiting for their huge majors.
This colony accepts honey, sugar water, nectar, roaches, mealworms, and fruit flies.
This is one of my more inactive colonies, and I have gave one of my other Ca02 colonies red nectar, and I’m starting to see the effect.

I’m thinking about starting a P.Rugosus journal. Should I?

Update coming soon! It will come out once I remember and the next generation exists! They have many larvae and some pupae
Sorry about the wait

[JenC]

Update coming this weekend...lots of pupae, fat larvae which is bigger than the present pupae, and eggs.

oh my god that's such a cringe joke

[Da_NewAntOnTheBlock]

yeah, but works in this situation

This is one of my 3 ca02 colonies. I chose to use this one as it was in the front on my ant closet, so I wouldn't have to bother my other ants. This colony has around 30ish workers and a new generation is coming soon. They have a good amount of brood and have lots of fat workers. They also seem to love black soldier fly larvae!

Decided to do another one!






This colony is my biggest ca02 colony. They have lots of pupae and larvae, and I hope they produce majors soon. They devour whatever I give them, except fruit flies. This colony will soon have another batch of workers, this one being the biggest!
