How to feed Sweet Giant Mountain Ants
After the new one, there is not yet any work
During the period, you may not feed the ants, or they may go out to work successfully. However, it is recommended to maintain the frequency of weekly feeding, in this way, the number of eggs, larvae and cocoons will be increased significantly, and it can help to replenish the energy of the weakened ants.
New, 1~20 worker ants will be produced
After the first batch of worker ants are born, the feeding frequency will be increased and adjusted according to the colony development, from once a week to three times a week. Try not to interrupt the egg laying frequency of the queen ants, and do not give too much food to avoid food odor, and it is not recommended to feed live ants at this stage.
Small colony, 20~100 worker ants
As the population increases, the test tube space becomes insufficient. At this stage, we can provide plaster ant nests, aerated brick ant nests, or add a new test tube for the colony to live in. During the moving process, we must use the guiding method, and must not pour out the test tubes violently, in order to avoid the colony to be shocked, which may lead to the stoppage of the ant colony's production.
Adjust the feeding frequency according to the feeding condition, from 1 time a week to 3 times a week, you may start to give live food (non-essential), the live food must be cooked or mutilated, the ants have the habit of carrying the food back to the nest, so the less the live food, the better, so as to avoid the ants can not finish the food, which may cause the nest to become seriously moldy.
Small to medium sized colony, 100~1000 worker ants
Depending on the conditions, the colony will provide bigger nests and the population will increase, so the feeding frequency should be increased. Depending on the feeding conditions, the colony should be fed 2 to 4 times a week.
Mature colony, more than 1,000 workers
The maximum number of worker ants in a mature colony is around 2,000 to 5,000. At this stage, the colony will produce male ants and virgin ants, which will be fed 5 to 7 times a week depending on their feeding status.

Sweet giant mountain ants are heat tolerant and are not picky eaters. As long as the ants do not live in a metal roof or a room under the western sun, they will not die of heat-related illnesses.
We try our best to ensure that only good quality queen ants will be produced for you. In case only the queen ants die, we will unconditionally replenish the litter for you due to the physical condition.
Our selling price is a little bit more expensive than that of a player's purchase, but relatively speaking, we ensure that the ants are absolutely healthy, and we provide services such as shipping insurance, post ants warranty, breeding education and answers to your questions.
Therefore, the only disadvantage of buying ants from us is that they are a bit more expensive.
Do not release!
Releasing them will not only jeopardize the local ecosystem, there is a higher chance that they won't be able to survive, and if there is really no other way, they can be frozen humanely.
We provide ants return home service, if you don't want to keep the ants anymore, you can just hand them over to us to take over.
These ants will not be sold twice, but will go to Kaohsiung's primary and secondary schools and other educational institutions as eco-teachers for teachers to use in classes or for students to observe.
The ants sold by ant hunters are all Taiwan-produced ants, and the source of ants is even collected by the owner himself from the mountains, not from foreign species, which will not damage the original ecology of Taiwan.
※ Release of animals is still strictly prohibited!
