I'm hooking up the new outworld for my Camponotus pennslyvanicus colony today-- I did a trial hook up for like 3 seconds and already 3 of them got into the new space. Husband wanted to watch them explore so 3 are currently trapped until I re-hook the nest.

You might think the restricted access would make them wary... knowing this colony, they'll be even more excited to get in!

There is a choice hiding space in this new area... I just hope they don't hang out in the connecting tube.

Every colony has a personality.

My pogos are chill and dependable.

My cone ants are little spazzes who freak out over every little thing.

The nicos are shy and stratigic.

And the pennslyvanicus? They are devious, sneaky, bodacious, goofy and endlessly looking for more space and more things to explore. So they get the new outworld.

@futurebird this should help their Communist Inclinations:
