It is another warm day in South London, with temperatures set to rise into the low 80s tomorrow. Could this be the beginning of a mini heatwave in south London? We will have to wait and see.
The Tallawah empire captured a Lasius Flavus queen as sunset swept over the Rocky Point plain.

Been waiting for you to upload for ages, have you had flying ant day yet? I have like 3 days ago, I caught many queens.

My apologies for taking so long to respond. There were several nuptial flights last month with Lasius nigers, not as large as last summer. I caught a queen, and she is living peacefully with the few Newbury Empire workers who escaped the Tallawah Empire's attack. They accepted her and she is laying eggs now. what queens did you managed to find?

@@theantrookie Many Lasius Niger’s and Flavus, will be waiting for Umbratus flights, also I have done an experiment with Lasius Niger where I got a colony whose queen had died and put a new queen in by putting the workers in the freezer for 2 - 5 mins and the queen in the fridge for a few hours, and then I combined them, I made two videos on my channel about this, now what was your method to get the Newberry workers to accept the queen?
