Very common ants which people think are easy to keep, but not as easy as some other ants I keep. This is a blackish brown garden ant which started off as a newly mated queen from 2014 flights and is now a colony of about 200. While they are doing well, and have a good stock of brood, they are not a species one could describe as lovely and certainly not as entertaining as other ants I keep.
I like all ants, but some can be a bit boring when it comes down to more active or exotic species. These are a good ant for an absolute beginner though who wants to learn a bit about ants before moving onto other species.
