: Question for ANTS and Keepers : Assuming that i can find a queen in a small colony : and build me a giant Uncle Miltons Ant Farm : I was thinking of a 3'x3' with a thickness of 3/4 to 1" : Made out of Glass, I know people use seperate feeding containers : but if you took this, drilled holes in the side, ran tubing(airline)from the holes (since i dont think a Queen can fit through this tubing) then run this tubing out my window into my yard? : I am thinking that if the queen cannot fit thru this tubing then : the main part of the colony would be forced to stay in my enclosure while the ants would be able to go outside to get food? : Also since we are starting the search for a small colony to dig up What is the recommendation on doing this (not the digging) but moving the queen, some eggs and pupau and some workers into a ant farm? Do i just dump in and let the working start digging and the queen will go down when its started. : Also about how many ants do i need to get(workers) with a queen to keep it running will 100 workers from the queen ants hill work or do i need more? : Thanks for any replys : Chad
