      why did you steal so many queens ????

    • @JordanDeanFilms
      @JordanDeanFilms  8 років тому +10

      I catch queens in order to raise and observe them and I often distribute some to others who wish to do the same.

  • @diabeticalien3584
    @diabeticalien3584 8 років тому +188

    Just to get this clear, if I randomly find a queen walking through my backyard, she doesn't belong to a colony, right? Otherwise, she would be underground....right?

    • @JordanDeanFilms
      @JordanDeanFilms  8 років тому +103

      That's right. A queen that's out in the open would be in the process of searching for a suitable nesting location in order to begin her own colony from scratch.

    6:01 I would also like to add that I personally found it useful to put sometime underneath the testube so it doesn't roll in the container as this can be stressful to the queen.

      I think their sting is actually beneficial to you, similar to a bee's. And don't expect to raise fire ants and not get bit.

    • @JordanDeanFilms
      @JordanDeanFilms  8 років тому +65

      They mate with drones (male ants) during a period known as nuptial flights. After mating has occurred, the males die, fulfilling their only purpose in life. Once mated, a queen is able to lay fertilized eggs for the remainder of her life, without the use of another male partner.

    • @SeeNyuOG

    • @JordanDeanFilms
      @JordanDeanFilms  8 років тому +31

      Yes, drones have wings, and in most cases, the female alates do too. Once the female alates have mated, they shed their wings and are known as de-alates (fertile queens).

    • @matthewjones6786
      @matthewjones6786 8 років тому +3

      ***** Depends. I rather like boxes. But as you said, ants can't communicate whether or not they're "fine" and are arguably incapable of feeling "fine", so feeling sorry for them is a bit silly. :P

    • @matthewjones6786
      @matthewjones6786 8 років тому +1

      ***** A silly comparison, imo. In this non-hypothetical world, humans are dominant because we can think, not because we're bigger. If an ant is trapped, it doesn't mourn its lack of freedom or wish for a more pleasing decor. It simply doesn't have the ability.

    • @mattk6315
      @mattk6315 7 років тому +4

      lmao, clearly you know nothing about ants. They actually rather like spaces like the one in a test tube to found their colonies in. Its not like she lives there forever either, and we know they like it because in the wild they make chambers that are startlingly similar.
