I have kept a whole lot of T. Caespitum complex ants before (Tetramorium Immigrans) and I have so say, they are just so fun after they explode!

[@AntHolleufer]

Uhhh I do look forward to having that happen!

[@RepvertYT]

caespitum are awesome after they explode from 10 to 100

[@AntHolleufer]

Yeah these girls are so much more active now! 🙌🏻

[@AntsAndAstic]

@@AntHolleufer their activities should increase to phidole levels quite soon. I personally don’t own and mature colonies rn (released my old one) but a friend does, the outworld is SWAMPED

[@quentinapplefish]

"Grabbing a queen by her gaster is TIGHT"

[@thedoomlord8618]

Wowowowow

[@belogic5347]

pavement ant update :O

[@AntHolleufer]

🤩😄

Haha you are so funny. It really Looks like that the neck of the Queen ist Broken.😂😂

[@learnbritishenglish9516]

can we have an update on the pheidole Sinica and polyrhachis queens????

[@AntHolleufer]

Both queens sadly got eggs, larvae and pupae but non of them made it into actually getting workers. They both died without any

[@ExponentMars]

the "oh no, she does'nt move in! I'LL HELP HER" and then she gets dragged away and the video pauses lol

[@AntHolleufer]

😆😆 definitely one of the parts I also liked! 🙌🏻😄

[@rainlluvia5818]

Wish my colonies were like that 😯 and first! And thats hopefully the colony I will get soon! Hopefully they will keep this fast growth after hibernation

[@AntHolleufer]

Yeah it’s very interesting I’ve put them in a cold room but they don’t seem to be getting ready for hibernation 🤷🏻‍♂️😅

[@AntsAndAstic]

@@AntHolleufer IDK about Caespitum but a very close relative of the species, Tetramorium Immigrans does not actually need to hibernate! It lives in temperate North America where most ants hibernate though. They might just not have to hibernate in your case.

[@antsofsydney]

I feel like the thing about workers ripping the queen apart might just be a myth. Great to see they're doing well!

[@AntHolleufer]

To be honest I have no die. But it sounds horrible 😳

[@AntsAndAstic]

@@AntHolleufer never had Tetramorium do that, def heard of messor doing that though

[@KaiserReichard]

@@AntsAndAstic as far as i know only inbreeding Ants might RIP apart the Queens If there are too many

[@AntsAndAstic]

@@KaiserReichard I’ve seen workers do it on accident, in colonies with one queen.

[@TheNormalMan47]

It dose happen if the queen doesn’t lay any eggs

[@AntsAndAstic]

Tetramorium do that lol! 😂

[@AntsNotes]

Ty again for such a well made video. :) Not related to this but I am interested to see how you deal with the mites problem in that one colony. Looked scary like hell.

[@AntHolleufer]

Mite killers have just hit my apartment! Will add them today!

[@bramhetfrikadelbroodje2953]

Holleufer disappearing for over a month and coming back just to test other ways to make content

[@AntHolleufer]

Haha yeah. Not sure what I like yet! But I’m indeed trying new stuff!

[@marcelabuenrostro2976]

Tetramorium immage

[@EgzotikTV906]

Hello, first of all, it is a good content, but I am unfamiliar with your language, so I can understand it at the level I learned in my education, but it is not enough, so I have to ask! I have a colony with around 30 workers and the water in the test tubes went bad and I changed the tubes for the health of the colony. I poured it on the area where the new tubes are from close range, but the queen is on the edge and the eggs + workers have been around her for about 8 hours and they still do not pass, what should I do?

[@anter6546]

Yay the caespitum!!! I really like that style of Videos.

[@AntHolleufer]

Thank you for the feedback!🙌🏻

[@Antramblings]

Amazing video 😃 love the new style wish i could edit like that . You have so many feathers in your cap now alex .Hi quality documentary style , fast editing amusing style , lives/ behind the camera . put hash tag ants canada on the description and you will be well away 😉

[@AntHolleufer]

Haha thank you! It may be an idea 🤔😆🤔

[@Antramblings]

@@AntHolleufer how do you think d colony grew so fast .

[@seeme5179]

What a great video

[@AntHolleufer]

Thank you!

[@flants0]

idk why mine filled the whole tube with brood

[@coverhoeven2904]

Some queens can be so stubborn

[@AntHolleufer]

Yeah 🙃🙃

[@ItzzCalamariGt]

I have a pavement ant queen thats just started to lay eggs in her test tube, i have her kept in a dark are, any tips?

[@Bucket531]

Don't check up on her often or she will eat her eggs or could die of stress

[@ItzzCalamariGt]

@@Bucket531alright! Thanks 4 the tip :)

[@learnbritishenglish9516]

polyrhachis proxima my bad😅

[@No42O]

Good video👍

[@AntHolleufer]

Thank you!

[@No42O]

@@AntHolleufer I was wondering if the Treasure hunt is still going on? (Side note: I think your content is improving in quality)

What did u do about the ants escaping?

very nice video

[@AntHolleufer]

Thank you!😄

[@blacksalem777]

We’re do you get your brood boost

[@AntHolleufer]

Uhh you can buy it but I’d recommend to ask around people keeping the same species as you! Else you can dig up colonies but I wouldn’t recommend that!

Man’s becoming more dramatic than AntsCanada 🫤

[@AntHolleufer]

Yeah I’m trying some new video styles to see what’s fun to make and what isn’t. Wasn’t a big fan of my old videos. They where quite boring so I’m trying some new things 😅
