Nice! Maybe I'm coddling my Veromessor too much. When they were a very young colony they had trouble dealing with dandelion fluff on the seeds, so I've been usually removing most of the fluff for them. What are they trying to get out of the stem?

Maybe they think that there are still seeds in there so they cut it open.
