    how can you keep a hotter side and a warmer side in an ant farm

    • @Alex-343
      @Alex-343 7 місяців тому +1

      place a heating element on one side so there is a gradient (gradiant?)

    Great video on this amazing species! 🤩
    I have on question though on the diapause over the winter. Do you reduce the nest temperature for this time or do you just mean reduce the access to food when you said "slow them down"?

    My ants are messor structor and messor barbarus. But I like to watch other ant species too ☝️ An unemployed and still constantly applying for jobs, so I can’t buy anything I want like I used to.

    Do you offer your ants the hummingbird nectar in its concentrated form, or do you dilute it?

    • @antopiausa4050
      @antopiausa4050  Рік тому +1

      I feed it straight but you can dilute if you’d like with no issues .

    You should put your website link in all your video the description boxes. I’m lazy, but also it’ll help navigate people to your site.

      @@RomeGod177 I have very little experience and from what I’ve heard they can be tough to get past the second year. Reach out to mack at Tar Heel ants he has the oldest colony in the US I believe .
