You should consider adding a price range to give people an idea on how much the Andrei would cost if bought.

No, I wouldn't say so. Too high would be nearing $100.

That's what I figured. Trying to get rid of these but any lower feels kind of cheap.

You need to have your location in your member profile (to buy and sell on the market place), as per forum rules. Sorry to bother you!

Last colony has gotten it's 5th worker. Putting it on sale today for 25$ since it's growing slower. Tomorrow price goes back to 30$.

I have 2 V. andrei colonies that are doing well. They are each 1 queen founding colonies in test tubes with a couple workers. Price 30$ + shipping. Will refund you money if they arrive dead. Pm me if you're interested. WARNING: I'm new to antkeeping. Once they arrive alive it's up to you to care for them. I can't give you definite care instructions. They are fairly easy though. I can give you advice but take it with a grain of salt.


Edit: one has 5 plus the other has 3 and more elcosing daily.


I am interested in this colony
