These were my childhood ant, Love them since I was little.
08/11/2015 - Found this flightless queen near our house after a rainfall.
11/112015 - She laid eggs. ( I've read somewhere, introducing workers helps to stimulate a queen to lay egg )
17/11/2015 - Found 3 New queens ( Spotted by my 4 years old daughter)
Experience :
I've learned that you can placed (OT) worker together from multiple colonies, only into a new environment, before they settle down (approximately one day to settle).
Else they will attack and kill the new introduce worker.
It is difficult to differentiate the worker and queen, the queen is slightly bigger than the worker.
(OT) are awesome hunter & fighter, they love to hunt live prey, I have a queen-less colonies, that I fed with live prey such as Horse Flies, they can take down these large powerful flies without any problem. (OT) likes to hunt in pack, once they've spotted a prey around.
