By correctly positioning the heating cable, you can provide the test tube with your ant colony with the correct temperature.

Warmed by the sun, protected by the earth, and ventilated for the ants. This is all incorporated into the Dock. The Arena is the above-ground part. In this outdoor living area, which the ants can access via the transport tube, the ants can collect their food (which you place there once a week) and dispose of their waste.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHow cool is it to be able to closely follow the ants' cooperation and the transport through the tube.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis starter set is suitable for all types of ants.

Of course, it is also possible to order an ant colony and food directly. Below the price, we have listed the options with special offer prices. The set is specially designed for the harvester ant species. So our advice is to choose a Messor barbarus colony (harvester ants). Due to the intelligence this species shows in collecting, storing, and processing seeds, this is our favorite ant species!\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\n\u003ch2\u003eContents of this set\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e- Instruction flyer for starting your plaster ant farm\u003cbr\u003e\n- Ant Farm Plaster Major (2 connection openings)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Town Square Arena (15x10x9 cm – 2 connections)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Connection hose (can be cut to size)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Test tube connector\u003cbr\u003e\n- Ant Docking Station (protects the ant colony)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Protective film for the nest area\u003cbr\u003e\n- 5 ml moisture syringe for moistening the reservoir\u003cbr\u003e\n- Printed booklet 'Ants are heroes' \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLength: 15 cm\u003cbr\u003e\nWidth: 10 cm\u003cbr\u003e\nThickness: 3 cm (chamber depth 4–7 mm)\u003cbr\u003e\nArena size: 15x10x9 cm\u003cbr\u003e\nNumber of plaster nest connections: 2 × 10 mm\u003cbr\u003e\nNumber of arena connections: 2 × 10 mm\u003cbr\u003e\nNumber of chambers: 8\u003cbr\u003e\nSuitable for: up to ±200 ants (depending on species)\u003cbr\u003e\nHumidification: central reservoir\u003cbr\u003e\nVentilation: arena ventilation lid\u003cbr\u003e\nMaintain humidity: 1–2 weeks, depending on colony and ambient temperature\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ant's Kingdom | Mierenboerderij","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57218307129679,"sku":"AK1A-1","price":60.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/6528\/1359\/files\/2348402561_081ee72b-a7fc-429c-a537-c6195c89a081.jpg?v=1773830696"},{"product_id":"mierenboerderij-gips-oogstmieren-complete-set-messor-barbarus","title":"Ant farm plaster harvest ants complete set (Messor barbarus)","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-xs-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-container left product-detail-tab clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-content clearfix\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tab-pane active\" id=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eAnt Farm Plaster Set – Includes Harvester Ants, Food, and Complete Starter Guide\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nContents of this complete ant keeping set\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e- Messor barbarus ant colony (10+ harvester ants)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Deluxe food set with seeds\u003cbr\u003e\n(sugar water, honeydew, fruit flies, jelly, seeds, pipette, feeding tray)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Instruction flyer for setting up your plaster ant farm\u003cbr\u003e\n- Plaster Ant Farm Major (2 connection openings)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Town Square Arena (15x10x9 cm – 2 connections)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Connection hose (can be cut to size)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Test tube connector\u003cbr\u003e\n- Ant Docking Station (protects the ant colony)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Protective film for the nest area\u003cbr\u003e\n- 5 ml moisture syringe for moistening the reservoir\u003cbr\u003e\n- Printed booklet 'Ants are heroes' – complete starter guide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nExplanation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis carefully curated ant-keeping set provides everything you need to immediately start the fascinating hobby of keeping ants.
