Is it just me, or was there something posted of mine here on 10/21/14, because it bothers me.

Honestly I do not know, this thread is filled with random trolls and pointless complaints.

It's not automatic, so you have to wait 24 hours or so for Mikey to get the email. It's usually less time than that.

Just wanted to check if your list is up to date. I'm trying not to spend more $$ but March seems so far away! :sore: Two small/dormant colonies just aren't satisfying my boredom at the moment...

Foogoo, I suggest Crematogaster. :) They are cool ants, especially when fed live fruit flies! 

Here is my colony feeding- notice how they use their gasters as paint brushes, applying their venom to the fruit flies.

That was actually what I was considering! The Camponotus are sleeping and until the Pogonomyrmex lay some eggs, who knows what they're doing.

 

Hopefully after next spring I'll be in the same boat and have more than enough going on!

I would think CDFA might have some issues with moving any S. invicta​ around.

And that Crematogaster, marioni I think.

Which Crematogaster is C. marioni? I've never been able to get any Crematogaster ID'd before.
