A few weeks ago a colony of Formica Cinerea arrived into my care from AntHouse. This consists of 11-12 workers and no brood. They have settled well at 22•c with lots of eggs and larvae. Video soon.

This colony has gone into early hibernation, and no new eggs have been laid and all brood hatched out into new workers.
