Formica pratensis Colony — Queen + 103 Workers

$23.95

Location

Stuttgart, Germany

Description

1 queen + 103 workers of Formica pratensis, brood present. Had this one since February 2024. Fed on sugar water and insects, nothing unusual. Needs a cold rest over winter.

I post Monday to Wednesday so nothing sits in a depot over the weekend. Ask before ordering if you need anything specific.
