Ant Farm

Community and Forum → Insects breeding → Ant Farm

We started a farm in October. In December, the queen died, and all the remaining eggs became ants. One made a large ant. At the end of April, 5 new eggs appeared on the farm. Now there are 3 of them left, they are large and none of them appear. What's going on, could this big ant have become a queen?

You would write what kind of ants though. But in any case, your hopes are in vain. Even if a large ant is a queen (which is highly unlikely, since most species of queen are initially winged), then it still needs a bat to continue the genus.

The Reapers. I also assume that I need a bat and wings, so I can't figure out where the egg comes from

So it's just a working major. Batka won't help.

Eggs could have been left behind from past times and not be noticed by you. They can also be laid by workers, but only forage ones. None of them are hatched and fed. Besides, since we're talking about reapers, are you sure they're eggs and not crushed seeds with mushrooms?
