NOTE: As of 4/30/2020 This is just a setup stage for when I have ants available later this year.

Feel free to PM me and I will direct you to people who currently have ants to sell in Ohio!

 

Shipping Policy:

While I am willing to ship ants within Ohio, I would much prefer selling face to face as it causes less stress to the ants. I will ship outworlds in the US. Shipping price will be a base fee of $10.

 

General Pricing:

I do not sell queens until they have mostly pupae, or already have nanitics.

(Variable prices depend on worker count)

 

Camponotus pennsylvanicus: (Currently out of stock)

First year - $20-$25

Second year - $35-$45

 

Camponotus chromaiodes: (Currently out of stock)

First year - $30-$35

Second year - $45-$55

 

Camponotus herculeanus: (Currently out of stock)

First year - $35-$40

Second year - $50-$55

 

Camponotus nearcticus: (Currently out of stock)

First year - $40

Second year - $55-$60

 

Camponotus subbarbatus: (Currently out of stock)

First year - $45-$50

Second year - $60-$70

 

Tapinoma sessile: (Currently out of stock)

Small bud - $20

Large bud - $35

 

Tetramorium immigrans: In stock  :)

First year - Free!!!!

Second year - $30-$35  (Out of stock)

 

Outworlds: Coming soon

 

Please note that this is just the basic skeleton of my listings. I currently have little to no stock

due to sales last year, and I should have more once flights really get going.

You still have to list your location on your profile, as per rule 8 of the forum.

Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies. 

However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:

Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).

You're in Ohio? I don't have any large colonies for sale, and I would actually recommend not buying a large colony, however, feel free to dm me and I can direct you to people who currently have ants for sale in Ohio.
Edit: can't sell out of state. Please be aware that it's listed at the very beginning of the post.

I'd enjoy seeing your nests and outworlds if you have any of those for sale.  Do you have a link?

No links yet, but if you check back in a few weeks or so, I should at least have outworlds ready.
