Hello! My name is Kevin and I (obviously) recently joined the forum. I just got into ant keeping and I have one queen, yet to be identified.  I am working on 3D Modeling some formicariums, and plan to give out some of the plans for a couple simple ones. I want to make a store here soon and sell some formicariums for the cheapest I can make them worth my time and money, so I can get more people into the hobby. So far, I've been designing a expandable formicarium, with multiple custom pieces that are all inter lockable, a formicarium that is split into 4 squares that can be printed on small printers, and one small sized solid formicarium. I want to design a nest that will be usable for a founding chamber and can have gates lifted throughout it to expand the nest for new workers. I want to make my experience and others' a good one, and hope to seeing everyone around the forum!

 

 

PS: If anyone is wondering, I'm the the South Jersey area.

Welcome aboard. 

 

You might try contacting MrILoveTheAnts, a user on this forum. He's in South Jersey as well, and he seems to usually be up for communal anting trips with people.

Welcome!

You could do a home based business on the side quite easily.  Demand fluctuates by a wide margin throughout the year, but the slow times allow you to catch up.
