Hey everyone! I am fairly new to ant keeping, I started doing research on ants about a year and a half ago, and captured my first set of queens in June 2017. I now have two healthy colonies of 8 and 12 ants, each with a good pile of brood. I found another queen yesterday, which I plan on getting help from you guys to ID. I love the hobby and I am grateful that I now have a community of other lovers to discuss them with!

Wow! You founded two healthy colonies from queens on your first try? I'd wish you good luck, but something tells me you won't be needing it.

Thanks man! You just made my day from that comment. I actually had 8 healthy colonies but my brother flipped my box of test tubes and destroyed most of them. :(
