- Prepare to be astonished as you follow the extraordinary 100-day journey of a single fire ant queen and a handful of workers, who transformed into a formidable force that demanded careful containment. Join me as we rewind time back to day one, and step by step, witness the astounding evolution of this fire ant colony.
Day One:
Day one - a fresh start with a new queen from Ant Antics after the passing of the previous queen. A modest beginning, with just a few workers and minimal ant brood. The magic unfolds as luck favors us, allowing the transfer of ant brood from the old colony, providing a vital boost.
Week 1:
Fast forward to week one, and the colony has already grown to approximately 30 workers. The queen has laid a new batch of eggs, a promising sign of her comfort and the colony's health.
Week 5:
By week five, the colony was around 70 workers. The queen's productivity is evident as she sits on growing layer of ant brood.
Week 8:
Fast forward to week eight, and the colony has outgrown its original nest. A larger outworld is introduced, and their preferences for food are tested, revealing their love for 'blue sugar snaps.' The first major workers make their appearance!
Week 12:
Week twelve arrives, and it becomes evident that the original nest can no longer contain their expansion. The colony's insatiable demand for space leads to the thriving hub of their nest being the old feeding area, now warmed by a heat cable.
Week 14 - Day 100:
Suddenly, it's week 14, marking 100 days of remarkable growth. The once tiny colony, consisting of a queen and a few workers, has outgrown its home. The move to the all-new Wakooshi Modular Nests with preparations for expansion already in place.
The delicate task of relocating the colony begins, revealing its astonishing size. In just 20 minutes, the entire fire ant colony migrates to their new nest.
The reality within the new nest is breathtaking, with a fire ant population beyond imagination. Maintaining this thriving colony now presents a daunting challenge.
Join me on this adventure and subscribe for updates as we witness the incredible story of this rapidly growing and evolving fire ant colony. The next chapter in their journey awaits, and only time will unveil their fascinating tale.

Thank you guys for watching this 100 days of keeping tropical fire ants! Is this a colony we should give a name?
Also be sure to check out ant antics and wakooshi link to both in description!
Have an amazing day everyone!
you've made me want fire ants now
name idea: the juggernauts might be a good name because the colony is very large
idea for name: Magma monsters
they look like magma/lava AND the have grown SO much in only
14 weeks?!? they are Monstors! (in a good way)
Name idea :The Red Knights
As you said there quite aggressive and I think this name is quite suitable
Name idea the queen name princess of death colony name fire knights
Red death
Nether ants
Fire knights
I guess this thumbnail and title really helped
I'm glad the brood boosting idea I recommended worked 😊😊
Very nice video.
Dude. The editing was breathtaking!
keep up the good work. Love your vids
Your editing is getting superb. Road to 1 mil!
Thanks man! And thanks for the long member support ❤️❤️
Wauw, these ants are insane, and the editing was perfect, good job🎉👍
dude ive been waiting so long for a part 2 thanks
This makes me want to keep the local myrmica species. I will next year!!
Mymerica are the best 💯, no one can say otherwise
Beautifull montage! VERY scary colony! ;)
They have become so big 😮
This video makes me wish I made my nest for my fire ants more visible to see how big they truely are, I believe I only have a few months left before the whole container is filled with fire ant larvae leaving no more hiding spots in the coconut husk for the brood to hide
HEY! coincidence meeting you here.
Is there an end game here? That’s a dangerous wild animal.
Good video :D
Nothing new for me to see, but I liked seeing it either way, along with the commentairy
Haha thank you!
Its insane how fast Fire ant colonies can grow.
That is one of my favourite videos ever well done
I seriously love watching your ant videos! Always amazes me!
Does anybody know if S.Invicta grow this quick?
Yes they do both geminata and indicts grow at this rate i think
Yes man ;)
As an ant keeper, you did a great job taking care of ants
Wow, this ant is awesome, I want to add one to my other colonies
Definitely a good challenge to try out if your up for it!
@@AntHolleufer Absolutely yes, thank you have a nice day ;)
Wow great progress
We should name them the Crimson Descendants in honor of AntsCanada’s Crimson Knights
Beautiful colony
good colony and finally new vid
You’re looking after them very well
very nice video but one question is there a species that grows just as quickly, is easy to keep, is large, has a stinger and is also a bit arresive
Yes Tetramorium Immigrant lives all over usa there flights are in june july
@@tiger3.052 thanks😊
@@DieGamePlayerX_es Oh i see you live in germany Right if so Tetramorium caespitum Its very common in europe
awesome video holls 🔥🐜🔥🐜❤
ur video was so amazing am goin to cry!!!!
oh i love fire ants so cool and fast growing
What are those nests called? I can't find them on the website?
They are going to be released around end September officially 😄
Is beautiful is so perfect
WERE THOSE MITES IN 5:54 ???????????? ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE NEST
Those were probably just some specks of dirt or reflections on the acrylic
There’s a mite at 5:55 - probably a grain mite (looks white)
I remember getting a expensive ant colony, getting all the food and stuff for them, just for not getting the ants I bought. I gave up after a few times of paying but nothing for it.
Brilliant video, this makes me so happy to see we dont have a fire ant problem in europe😅
What a journey!❤
It's a good video would have like it even more if it was longer 👍
So it’s 2am on a Monday morning & I have never been so interested in ants 😂❤
I believe I have a solenopsis geminata
Every time I try build a fire ant army black ants just come and take them away
that was an amazing video I love watching your videos. but from 5:53 to 5:55 I saw mites just wanted to tell you.
Thank you! I think it’s grain mites!
i think so to
Rip to the ant egg in the bottom

Wow amazing🐜stuff hope to🐜 see more great job🐜 👏👏👏🦗🐜🐜🐜🐜
so 8 months ago i found an huge colony with a lot of queens i mean A LOT so i have to fight back cuz they in my plants they were armys and i can't water the plants
Did you literally just grab the old setup swarmed with fire ants out? How did that go? Also how bad is a sting from these guys because I have yet to be stung and kept them for 3 years growing in the thousands..
It's alright it hurts but you won't scream and double over in pain. Hope this helped
Ive been wondering if fire ants live in paradise california because fire ants are my dream ant colony because they grow FAST and it is satisfying to watch them grow an empire, so if you live in Paradise California and see fire ants LET ME KNOW ❤
Amazing😃
So cool
POV: my backyard 😂 💀 ☠️

Btw if you want alot of fire and queens just go to the Philippines there's alot of them (when i say alot i mean ALOT)
Why anyone would keep fire ants in their house is beyond me!
It is a hobbie
1 year ago i captured 22 fire ant queens
wtf
How??
I live in Philippines so thats how
Do you mean "hahhhh ants"?
🎉
Probably super colany
Hi guys
Why do you call them "vergaz"?
This ant species is a destructive nightmare
Keeping this ant should be illegal
If you don't release them it's fine
I dare you to buy the rarest queen
This is the most expensive queen
People who want to have a ant colony 👇🏻
🍷🗿👍🏻
I Found a Fire ant colony with 350+ queens
🧢
Cap bro they only accept 1 queen bro like man it's super duper 🧢
Maybe that's just a big fire ant,🧢🧢🧢
@@Touchsomegrassbromaybe he saw fire ant queen that were going to naptual flight
@@Bypass310 then how did I find one
Man…we better hope some maniac isn’t breeding these and selecting for size just for the lolz. One nuptial flight and the land vertebrate era would be on its way out.
:)
That website sells ants illegally
Most websites do lol
womp womp
Жаль что не по русски разговариваешь 😢
