Antkeeping is a fun and educational hobby for everyone. Many people participate in antkeeping as citizen scientists, recording and sharing their observations of ant behavior in var ious online communities. It's also a great family activity, with any sunny morning or afternoon in the summer becoming a chance to wander the outdoors, looking for newly mated queens. Once you catch those queens, you need a quiet, humid, dark space for her and her first brood to thrive. Our all-in-one founding setup includes one gypsum-lined nest chamber, a test-tube water feeder to provide humidity and drinking water, and shutters to close the remaining entrances to the nest. With a darkness cover, this provides the perfect environment for your newly caught queen to lay and raise her first brood. When her first workers come you can provide food directly in the nest until you're ready to attach an outworld. Dimensions of nest: 42.80mm W x 94.90mm L x 25.12mm T Show more
