Hey everyone, long time no see.

I'm sure those of you who have been around for a while will remember the fungus grower guide I made nearly four years ago. It was well received, but it has definitely become outdated.

And so, for the last year, I've taken it upon myself to make it better. I wanted to take all the information I've learned over the past nearly 5 years of keeping and observing fungus growing ants to make the ultimate, all-inclusive guide for the care of every Attina possible. And so I did - in video form this time!

Needless to say this was a huge undertaking of work, and something I'm very excited to share with the greater antkeeping community. I hope you like it, and hope it helps!

I spent my afternoon watching the whole thing! One of the most informative and well planned out videos I’ve ever seen on fungus growers! If you wanna learn about leaf cutter or plan to attempt to grow them this video is a must watch!
