Great find, Marco. I suggest you go on that site in US and search for all members who have posted about Leaf Cutters , then send the a PM to come here and share their experiences.
There are a couple of things that stand out on this post.
1. Fish pellets! Thats a great add to the food plants section! A staple thats available all year round. Never thought of that. I have used fishflakes as an experiment but pellets: thats great. Also thinking that fish pellets may be the perfect Trachymyrmex food.
2. Conditions must have been perfect for the fungus to develop like that. The growth from tiny spec to proper fungus requires no adverse parameters and this person got pretty much all of the colonies through. Very impressed. We should get them on here for sure!

You should tell him his post is up and he should come and join us. I personally would like to talk with him about his techniques. I think he has something to add here.
