1. tell me if you live in Canada (If you don't just don't answer the question)

 

2. tell me is you live in Ontario, Newfoundland n Labrador, New Brunswick (If you answer this don't answer the next question)

 

3. tell me if you live in Montreal

 

The reason for this is to see if there is any ant keepers around me


Currently keeping:

 

1x Formica subsericea, (used to be polygynous) 15+ workers with 4 pupa (Idk why they still have)

1x Lasius umbratus, (Workers accepted) 5+ workers with host brood

1x Ponera pennsylvanica, just queen

 

As you watch your ants march, remember: every journey begins with a single step (or queen)-not just towards you, but towards a future woven by diligence and shared dreams - Me

Sorry man, I live in Canada, but in B.C. 

Good to know that there's some Canadian ant keepers on this forum! Also, my friend IdioticMouse26 lives here as well. (I hope he's okay with me disclosing this information haha)


Currently raising: 

Myrmica rubra (1 queen +  ~5 workers)

Lasius niger (single queen + ~90+ workers)

Lasius neoniger (3 single queen + brood)

Formica spp. (Queen [likely parasitic, needs brood])

Formica pacifica (Queen)

Also keeping a friend's tetramorium immigrans for the foreseeable future. Thanks CoffeBlock!
