I re-re-got this colony a few days ago, and their three inches of fluon is working well. Their numbers are probably in the low hundreds.

I keep:

pogonomyrmex rugosus

myrmecocystus depilis

monomorium ergatogyna

And many Carnivorous plants such as:

Dionea (fly trap), Sarracenia x 'Fiona' ( American Pitcher plant), Nepenthese ventrata (Tropical Pitcher plant), and Pinguicula agnata x emarginata (Butterwort) (show off your plants here)

 

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

 

2 or more ant colonies coming soon...

Feeding time! It was great to see this colony swarm for a bit of turkey. One of my favorite thing to do is feed a colony, and watch as an ant finds the treat and reports the good news!
