Today I received my messor valentinae colony from antkit 11-20 workers seems more like 30 :) really happy with how they were shipped and tonnes of brood but very shy queen I can't expose any light on the colony. Just waiting on the rest of the kit to arrive :))

Just received all the kit I ordered and it's amazing I started the moving in process instantly and within 10 minutes they started moving within about a month they have grown to nearly 50 workers as the pupae have all hatched . I will try and get some good photos within the next few days :))
