Hello all. I'm currently looking for Novomessor cockerelli. I'd be interested in anything from a new queen to a small established colony. Let me know if you have anything!

Thanks

If all else fails, the vendors in the U.S. which currently have Novomessor cockerelli in stock are The Ant Vault for $68.99 and Antopia USA for $32.99. You may be able to get it cheaper if you buy from an independent on this forum like you're trying to, but if no one has anything, then here.

Cryptizc (in the ant keeping server) may have some in a few weeks 

 

Bumble is all sold out (I bought the last one, sorry!) but I know she always has novomessors when they're in season

 

Stateside is really expensive

 

Antopia is the cheapest currently

 

Ant vault is the most expensive for Novomessors

 

You should check out the antkeeping discord server or keep checking out the market place, I'm sure you can find some.

Yup, I'm sold out for now. It's just that I've been neglecting to update the sales thread. I may have more available in the near future though.
