A lot of ants!
around 18 or 20 of the second gen have eclosed with another 60 or so left to eclsose!
Sorry for the weird thing covering some of the brood, I don't know what it is
When the second gen ecloses I'm going to move them into a small formisquarium

Nice, I didn't know that they span cocoones after some time my Formica span them at the start. Also can you give us a pic of the whole setup?
