Hi all. I've been a lurker for several weeks now, but this is my first post. I'm a budding novice anter; my main "life therapy" is my plant collection. I've been a plant collector for over 20 years and probably have over 1,000 plants. I grew up in the country and have always loved outdoors, both flora & fauna. I'm one of the weirdos who loves seeing wasps hunting throughout my yards - I learned a long time ago that they get used to me, and as long as I leave them alone they don't mind me at all.
I've got a few unidentified queens right now. I'll be posting pics to hopefully ID them soon (I already loaded some so-so pics to my gallery). At least one (probably 2) are RIFA, a small colony of acorn ants (guessing possibly Temnothorax sp.), and another that I'm not sure what she is. She's the smallest of the three queens and the only one to have laid eggs. I just found another today that I think is the same kind as the last one.
I look forward to reading a lot more on the website and learning more about keeping ants!
Carter.
