that's good. As I said, the Crematogaster brood served her as some protein to feed her new brood.

I have a question, there is this red thing growing in some of my queens test tubes? What are they, and what should I do? I moved one away, but she came and brought it back to the eggs she had.

Okay so all the p. Rugosus, but 1 have had egg-spolsions. Elza got 3 more workers, Anna lost all of hers, and Kog'Maw has a lot of normal sized workers.

Is it okay for me to feed both crematogaster and p. rugosus apple pieces? i only have 3 p. rugosus left. My brothers got a larva. All crematogaster had a small population boom thanks to byformica products.

Some Crematogaster species are polygynous.

They will just kill each other... you don't want the other queen getting hurt.
