The colony seems to be at a good pace. They are getting a worker every day or two.

Still need to throw some pics out of here. The colony's brood pile is looking great after last feeding. Soon gonna be heating them so they will grow a lot more faster. Their almost at about 40 workers to and should be getting a ton in a few weeks cause they have tons of larvae.

It's been awhile since I've updated this. They are at about 100 workers now with lot's of brood. They seem to be doing great. I have only been feeding them mealworms too. picture below.
