Hi everyone! I put my colony of myrmecocystus into a mini hearth and forgot to give them extra sand for their cocoons. I put some in the outworld. Will they be able to carry this into their nest? It’s very fine sand (reptisand)

Thanks

A mini hearth is the ultimate pot founding nest for a reason. It’s has everything they need. Besides food and water.
Currently: Considering moving to Australia
Reason: Myrmecia
