I found an Anochetus sp queen in my garden today and I'm not sure how to raise this species, I've successfully raised Odontomachus before but is the care same for Anochetus? What should I feed her? Do they need wet or dry substrate? How long does it take for the eggs to hatch?

Same as Odontomachus but smaller setup so just a longer test tube will do. Feed her small bugs or roach/cricket legs. U damn lucky man.
Edit: wet substrate. But not too much of the substrate or else she will burrow in and you won't see her.

Thanks! Also, she doesn't eat mealworms but she did eat springtails, I'll try roaches later. And she dug out a small chamber in the substrate  , luckily I can still see her though.
