Hey Preny


One day we will make a false accusation, but today's not that day.

Hello and welcome !

Shame for the local fauna indeed, I'm lucky enough not to get to much bothered by any exotic invaders in my location.
At least that could mean you would be able to keep some on your own tho !

Sorry if we potentially misjudged you (assuming you are indeed telling the truth) but sadly a lot of people are suspicious of new accounts from florida due to this person and his activities. Often times he will join the form on an alt and pretend to be a new antkeeper in order to trick people into buying from him.

We'll see. I give that account a month before they are "selling" something

We will see if I sell my single dorymyrmex colony (which I won't because it is my only colony).
