So, I've been thinking about getting into ant keeping. Anyone have any idea when Nuptial Flights happen in Israel? I imagine no, but better to ask!
Ants are intensely interesting to me and have only grown more-so as I've studied ant keeping and ants in general. A lot of what I thought I knew has turned out to be exceedingly basic and narrow in focus.
I'll keep you guys up to date once I get things rolling.
@Surasanji can't you just buy mated queens?
@Absinthe Yes. But not in Israel that I've found.
@Surasanji I just looked, and it doesn't seem that they are easily available in the US either. The online places seem pretty steep in AU dollars. Who knew. You can get a mated Honey Bee Queen here for about $40 and the USPS is required by law to deliver them :)
