    I work at a local pet supply and wellness company. There has been an increase in kids and adults who have an interest in any keeping, and many of them specifically have mentioned your channel. I have been watching myself for a couple of years now and you are very informative, it helps me with my job and also helps these up-and-coming ant keepers.

    I actually have seen local pigeons and doves with similar wounds on their throats and chests, that’s the sign that they were attacked by another bird like a hawk or falcon. Surprisingly enough they can typically survive the encounters provided that it’s not too deep of a gash , doves and pigeons are very resilient.

    That was pretty amazing, it is not really that gross. I've never seen that pigeon before, I learned some new things.

    I’ll be honest, there really was quite a few surprises in this video, I don’t blame people for thinking it’s both disgusting and surprising!
    As for an idea of a Halloween feast for the fire ants, or maybe even the marauder ants, I suggest 2 or 3 mice covered in both honey and jelly. That would surely be a great idea! Also, you know how ants can’t see the color red? Well to make the ants be able to eat the jelly I suggest giving them orange or black jelly that of course have different flavors, if you ever have them that is… I hope you do though… I’m not sure what flavors of jelly you have. 😅🫤

    I don’t know why, but I just find watching ants eat food so satisfying. One time we had a family gathering when I was 7 or 8 at a restaurant. But there were ants all over in one corner, so I just sat there for the whole family gathering watching them eat my French fries.

    Good day AntsCanada. I always enjoy your videos and it's amazing to see how the ants go on with their lives and reveal their unique behaviors. I'm from South Africa and have an idea of what you can do to prevent escapes. We have an insecticide called Fendona 6 SC, which we sprayed around our door and window frames. Any incest that walks over that barrier dies within minutes. 9 months was passed since my father sprayed it and the barrier was still active enough to kill a scorpion before it got into our house. We also don't have any ants crossing that area where we applied the Fendona.
    But feel free to investigate more about this insecticide and if you are able to find it in your stores. Hopefully it will prevent future ant escapes and prevent unwanted ants to enter.

    I just thought that maybe the next thing you could feed one of your ant colonies could be some regional fish? As in those native to the ants' area in question, just in case a type of fish might be unhealthy to a species of a different location; we wouldn't want to risk doing that to them. I think it would be pretty interesting to see how they might like some fish meat. 👍

    I would like to know how you plan to move this colony if it were necesary. It wouldnt be easy to take out the queen from the volcano if the colony get sick or you just need to move them out because a problem in the terrarium
    Edit: well, i guess my question was sort of answered

    Wouldn't feeding them larger and larger amounts of food just result in a larger colony exponentially demanding more food, otherwise they'll starve out?

    Maybe you could release a insect that can fight back to the fire ants, so they can have a little more distraction, tough keep it small enough. We don’t want the crimson knights and their queen killed 😅.
