Bought a colony of Lios a few weeks ago and will update once a week. They have 2-3 hundred workers and a very large amount of brood.

The colony has made a small grave sight in the corner and have gained about more or less 50 workers. I have to refill the liquid feeder every 2 days and they eat about  2 super worms every 4 days. They had a little decline with pupae but the queen has laid loads of eggs so everything should be fine. I will send some pictures soon
