Yeah, I never posted it here, but the Atta did in fact die. This summer while I was visiting family in Illinois, my dad began travelling again for work, meaning that during the week neither of us were home. Because of this he decided to set our AC at 88 degrees to save power... Anyone on here should instantly know what that means. When I came back the entire fungus garden had been cooked and was dead, and after around 3 weeks of desperately trying to get them to recover, the queen died.

Bummer. Such a great colony.

Dang I'm so sorry -- I hope you can get an other colony again some day!

 

If it's any consolation you've left a really fantastic journal here which was personally helpful to me as well as an incredible care thread -- a great legacy

That’s a tough loss. I hope you can start over.

They died? When. Where did he say that. They were featured on his Chanel six months ago.

On discord he mentioned it.

Man I’m so sorry. Looked like a fantastic colony

In case you missed it, I have Atta again! I decided to start a new journal rather than continuing this one in an attempt to "preserve" this colony's story all in one place. The new journal can be found here: https://www.formicul...v2/#entry231574
