Jan 7th 2018 was Soul's last login, but he's been MIA from selling for awhile.

 

The GAN project has referred a few of his buyers to me lately because his hasn't been responding to his email.

 

Not sure what's up. He's only been doing this for a year? Maybe he's taking a break or just giving up and realized it's not that lucrative. If anyone is curious, selling ant's alone doesn't make a whole lot. Nothing you want to boast about anyway. It pays for the hobby (like gas and lodging when you drive out several hours to random places), but there's not a lot you actually pocket. The amount of time it takes to care and feed borders on the ridiculous over the course of one season. 

 

Even with the amount of species I have, I break even with extra cash to spend only as "lunch and dinner money". I do it simply because it pays for the hobby, and, well, ants are cool.
