I know i may be late to the party on these, but i came across these XL labyrinths on the website. These things are absolutely huge (8x10) and would be perfect for a mature pogonomyrmex colony or any other large species that has trouble climbing.

Wow, that's even bigger than AC's Hybrid Nests. And it's not plastic like they are!  :lol:

I ordered one of these over a month ago, still hasn't shipped as far as I know. Clearly they take a long time to make.

They ship things super slow there. You wait months for any custom made formicariums.

But when you do get them. Their quality blows you away!

Highly true. Almost impossible to beat their quality.
