Hey everyone!

I’ve been on here for a little bit now but have never introduced myself until now.

Like the title says I live in Ontario, Canada. I have been interested in ants and ant keeping for over 25 years. I made many failed attempts at keeping ants early on and kind of gave up. Then about 2.5 years ago I came across an AntsCanada video. I very quickly realized there is a lot more information available now. I binge watched videos, read and researched tons and now here I am with a thriving Camponotus Pennsylvanicus colony.

This is our second season. The colony has well over 40 workers and a massive growing brood pile.
If interested you can check out my progress from day 1 to now: Part 1- https://imgur.com/a/2kTk38Y& Part 2 - https://imgur.com/a/zQYRk90

All the best to everyone this ant keeping season!
Cheers!
