hey everyone, hope all of you are having an amazing memorial day weekend.

 

I need to go away for a month and I don't have anyone to take care of my four queens but i want them to have enough food for when i come back, I found this on eBay.

I think protein jelly is fine but it would be helpful to know the brand. Also, if you only have queens they should primarily be given sugar, and if they are fully claustral then they probably don't need any food.

It is safe. Ants dominate the planet for a reason. They are not delicate faerie beings.
