my argentine ant queens were fine, then i added in wild workers! they started killing their own queens and now only 5 are left and 3 of them not injured. Why did this happen...

No idea, but what does that have to do with this thread?

People kinda have no place to post questions that aren't large/important enough for their own thread. There should be a pinned ant questions thread in both anting and ant keeping. Would have put this in the suggestions, but seeing this came up, I put it here, feel free to move to to suggestions.

Yes. You should create new topics for your own questions that are completely unrelated to the topic you are posting on. This is no different than any other forum on the internet. It's usually referred to as "hijacking" someone's topic, and not very polite.

not like anyone was planning on reading this lol

Can I reserve the 30$ Solenopsis invicta colony?

[dspdrew]

Sure. I removed it from availability.

[Gregory2455]

Thanks Drew, I will pay/pick it up with the Acromyrmex fungus.

[Gregory2455]

Also, Drew, that reserved 30$ Solenopsis invicta is locked in at 30$, right?

Yeah.

I have moved all of the whining and complaining about my prices to a new thread. All of that can now be found here (http://forum.formicu...sifieds-thread/). If you feel the need to argue about GAN farmers' prices, that is the place to do it, not here. Any more of those posts here will either be deleted or moved over there.

when is myrmecocystus navajo for sale ???

[dspdrew]

Certainly not until they all have workers, and have had them for a little while. I think there was only one with cocoons the last time I checked.

[Alza]

and which shade of camponotus vicinus are you selling, how many workers, and how many larvae/pupae 

[Alza]

nvm there's 0 left 

[Alza]

how close is your acromyrmex to getting workers ?

[dspdrew]

BTW, for any that I have a large amount of, I'm adding a price break for each additional colony.

 

At the time of posting this, that would be a 50% price break for any additional P. rugosus, or Camponotus sp.2.

[Alza]

go more in depth, are you saying if i bought a rugosus for 40$ i could get xyloni for 10 ?

20 *

[Gregory2455]

He means by species. One P.rugosus for 40, and another for 20.

[Gregory2455]

Would you take an infertile Myrmecocystus navajo +20$ for a fertile one?
