Here is the start of my Pheidole Bicarinata journal! I am super excited for to watch this colony grow up. They are a relatively small colony, with 15 workers and a beautiful queen. I fed them a fruit fly and some humming bird nectar last night. I hope all of you enjoy this journal!

Sorry for the bad pics, the colony is doing way better than they look in the pictures. I will be getting a macro lens soon :)

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores it's provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. Proverbs 6: 6-8

Good luck! I’d give them way more than one fruit fly.
