Queens of 2024
 
Lasius Flavus commonly known as the yellow meadow ant
They spend a vast magority of their time underground farming root aphids.
Queens are a light brown with yellow a underbelly whilst workers are a lovely orange / yellow making for a truly beautiful Ant colony.
They are quite a timid species and very rarely found above ground apart from during Nuptial flight time.

Protein and Sugars are Required: Wax Worms / roaches /crickets are eaten by this Species.
Nesting: Test tube whilst founding , for best growth
 I recommend a natural set up although they will be ok in a man made set up. 
Temperature : UK room Temps are ok 
They Hibernate between November and March
Colony Size when mature : 10,000
Mono/Poly: Monogyne and Polygyne when in a very large natural set up where queens can be kept separately from each other.
