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

 

if you do pm him and want to buy the ants from him, you will need to put the state you live in on your profile.

they are ok. camponotus are, in my opinion, a little easier to raise. but it is up to you.

Vicinus anyone? Let me know if you're interested but think they're overpriced.
