The larger species (P. diversus and P. Affinis) are not as sensitive as the smaller species (P. silenus and P. pygmeaus). For the smaller species use a larger container and more soil. Keep the room temperature at around 30 deg C and the first workers should emerge in 30 to 40 days.Quahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11170078958686855364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661282031594678005.post-14640291579558273392013-01-28T14:30:50.429+08:002013-01-28T14:30:50.429+08:00Any advice on people starting a colony of Pheidolo...Any advice on people starting a colony of Pheidologeton? I live in Penang, and I know for sure there are some. I'm hoping I might be able to find a queen one day and start a colony. <br /><br />But I heard it's super hard to raise them due to humidity requirements and such. I was also wondering how the colony in the pictures got started? Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
