Purplebacks all sold. 

 

If you guys want to hold something, especially in large quantities, you must pay first. I can't hold a large amount of queens indefinitely while others want to buy. Not trying to be difficult! These are going fast and I get lots of requests to "hold" them, but then said buyer will ghost and never purchase or flake.

Everything sold out. There are a few Mexicanus and Navajo (like 3 and 5) on hold, if the buyers flake I will put them back on the market. Thanks for playing.

 

Should have dug up more queens haha.

Haha dunno. Probably not single queens. Wanna see if these gals have fungus. If they do will most likely sale as colonies.

 

EDIT: Actually Jeff if there are queens that do not have fungus I'll do single queen sales, cuz I know many of you have fungus.

 

When are Acromyrmex going up?

Listing updated, not much left. All $40 quercicolas sold. Just pots and peegus left.

 

The new season is just a few months away so if you can wait a few months most everyone in SoCal will have a lot of new queens.
