[Termitesyay]

So I have been raising a colony of termites I got a while ago and I am very pleased to say that now they have secondary queens. I keep them In a temperate box and sprinkle moisture in on them when needed , and I have been using some dry rotten wood that I have been making purposefully moist to a degree, and it seems to be working so well. Although every once in a while I notice the termites will be completely done with a piece of wood so I swap it out for more wood. I also found this as a great strategy for preventing mold. I was just so happy about the success of my colony that I wanted to share it with everyone. Also when I first got this colony they had a queen a king and a few workers, but this was a while ago, and I am so happy with how much she and the others have grown.

Pics or it didn't happen

I messaged you, I might try luring them out into a newer piece of wood so I can take a picture of them while they try to move into it. That way it does not really mess up their tunnels, and it prevents them from getting accidentally hurt. These termites mean so much to me.

You're good, it's better that you take care of them properly. Appreciate the effort!
