Two of my workers eclosed yesterday! Finally. Now I just have to set them up with more permanent digs. And that's where my problem occurs.

I was trying to buy a formicarium from http://www.anthills.net/formicariums.html , but for some reason their Paypal account is hosed and won't work. I emailed them and I hope they get back to me. I looked around the rest of the internet and it seems most places selling formicariums or farms are located in Europe with questionable international shipping. I would make one myself but I have absolutely zero equipment or handy ability required to work with plaster, ytong, glass, plexi, etc.

In the mean time I'm just going to add on another test tube. Would sugar water be an okay food? I really don't want to give sticky honey to my queen and risk making a mess.

Looking at those beautiful formicariums makes me want to try my hand at keeping ants. I hear the words "ant farm" and my mind immediately goes to that cheap green plastic one I had as a kid.
