Nice one Graeme, where did you get them from? Looks like a good size colony. Did you manage to see the queen?

Hi, got them from British ants as they were 50% off. I've seen the queen and about 250 workers. They have moved the fungus 3 times but today no foraging at all... can't see the fungus as it's burried
