Question Dump

I have a few questions about the starting phase of caring for my Tetramorium Caespitum queen.

  1. When And What Should I Feed My Queen And Her Future Workers?

  2. Is Ok To Check Once Daily? I was dumb so i checked multiple times every day before but she was really hardy, still layed eggs and didnt eat them

  3. When having a sandwich formicarium, is it alright to. Keep it covered in red plastic at all times? Its gonna be in my room so i wanna see them at all times

Is this setup good? Tetramorium Caespitum

I keep her test tube in a box with a small window to make checkups easier, the window is always covered so light isnt a problem, the box has ventilation holes and theres paper towels in the box to absorb vibrations and sound
