I've got the colony with about 50 workers. It's the first colony I had. I was really happy getting into myrmecology!

I was not the only one to be curious about ants, my cat was interested too. The nest was placed on the radiator. One day my cat, stretching on the radiator, brought down the nest on the ground. Fortunately I was able to act quickly to prevent ants from escaping. But the plexiglass was completely cracked. So I had to move my ants to a new nest.
