Great photos but there a bit small, how did you load them?
Looks like that will work really well for a short time due to only holding one pod.

i used pixresizer because it said they were to big when i tried to post them

How is best to upload photos mate

[Deansie26]

Photobucket seems to be the most widely used.

Since they started cutting leaves they dont seem to have stopped, they are always busy. Im not sure what leaf it was that i put in with them, it was just something i found while walking the dog, i will get a photo later to see if anyone can identify it but they seem to really like it, they didnt cut it were i left it they dragged the whole leaf to the fungus.
Is there such a thing as a leafcutter widow, if so my wife has become one. I love watching these ants at work. I cant wait until the colony has grown so i can watch long trails of workers carrying leave back and forth
