I came home from work and my smallest colony had some mold in it, so I cleaned it out, and then found him dead. First death in this colony besides my old old man, and he was probably days away from molting into an adult. His hind leg is entirely black and missing, and I’m worried about contagions in my colony. I’m assuming he died of some internal infection, but I’ve never seen melanization like this before.

Here’s her today enjoying her treat, the day she molted, her with her mate, and her oldest boy who just molted into an adult last week 🥰 (Bonus her meeting my cat, she needs to smell everyone who enters a room or else)
