Re: Ants
I used to but they always seemed to die for some reason. I don't keep them anymore, but they were pretty cool while I had them.

Re: Ants
I kept some sugar ants a while back for a school project. I am no expert, but I did learn a lot from that project. The thing about ants is that you need a fertilized queen to keep replenishing the colony or it will simply die slowly (like mine did). They are definitely fascinating! I loved watching a bunch of them huddle around a single water droplet to drink, or their slow progress digging a tunnel in the farm I had. I'm sure someone will come along with more experience than me.

Re: Ants
Never mind about not keeping ants anymore! I got more! If you want to learn about ant keeping I'd really recommend AntsCanada on youtube.
