Somehow, today, I found an ant escaped from the ant farm. Now, how this happened is a mystery. All exits from the basin are sealed. Little buggers, will a have to watch them carefully. The expansion is continueing, there are now 2 distinct chambers, with four seperate connecting tunnels.
Ive also been waiting for the Ant nuptial flights, but as far as I can tell, this has still not happened yet. I have Antworld sitting there just waiting for a queen to move in. But its just not happening yet. Bloody british weather. I must say, I cannot remember a summer as poor as this before. 2 months of nearly solid rain, jeez. Bring on the sunshine.

Well, the expansion has continued. The main chamber has now been linked to a number of the other tunnels. There are now 3 distinct piles of sand that have been excavated. The main tubing from the farm to the basin is being filled up with sand. Had to clean out the basin today, some of the blackberry that I put in there went moldy.
I have just bought another ant farm, this is a cheap one that you may all be familiar with, you know, for kids...lol. It does the job though. I have bought it to put a L. Niger queen in, as soon as I find one when the nuptial flights have taken place. I will let you know how it goes, oh and as soon as I have bought some new batteries for the camera I will take some pics for you.
