Condition/usage:

-like new. Great for entry identification or viewing of small species. I used it for identification and it has enough zoom and clarity to identify all of California Camponotus, all Myrmecocystus, and various other species/genera. I upgraded to a trinocular scope and think someone else could use this to learn identification or view their colonies.

Can the P. Californicus be in same nest with a Rugosus Queen? How many Queens do you have? Thank you. Let me know.

There is two queens left. Zero left. They will almost definitely be killed if given to a P. rugosus queen.

Will you have any Rugosus Queens available anytime soon? Or Placodops and Semirufus?

It's almost like you guys are blind or are so illiterate you can't read my simple request that a three year old child can understand.

 

Please take unrelated questions and comments to other subforums such as General Anting, as to not clog up a sales thread...

 

None of what any of you guys are yapping about are comments or questions directly regarding any of the stuff I'm selling. Move on from this thread.

 

 

 

Yet another example of your blatant lack of knowledge spoken with such confidence. Please refer to a Dunning Kruger curve graph and look at where you fall.

 

 

“Honeypots” and “cheap” will never be in the same sentence. It’s the Myrmecocystus Law. The cheapest queen I’ve ever seen was for 70 dollars, and only because it was infertile. You can get queens for 80 - 90 dollars from XXXXXX

 

Additionally, why are you advertising two different companies on my sales thread??? I sell Myrmecocystus queens usually for $20. I'd appreciate if you read my listings before advertising other peoples' stuff and spreading even more misinformation. But, what can I expect from someone who spreads misinformation all of the time.

 

And another thing, to the both of you, please for love of god delete most of the quotes that are irrelevant. Quoting a huge quote chain takes up huge amounts of space for no reason when you aren't responding to more than one message from it.
