It’s amazing how quick Crematogaster grow. Earlier this year my colony has 0 workers. Now they are probably 50+ with new workers enclosing everyday. I also love how they just devour any source of protein I give them. Good luck with your colony!

Mine also like ... raw honey diluted in water.
I just found out that raw honey and water left to sit will ferment... very toxic for ant food, I'll no longer do that! Apparently processed, or pasteurized honey has the natural yeast removed so no danger of fermenting.
That is why you can add hummingbird nectar. It acts as a preservative, so the nectar does not ferment, for a longer time.
