Combi Set Diggable Ant Farming Kit – Choice of Ants

 Combi Set excavable breeding kit with choice of ants.

• Complete, high-end Combi Set kit. Allows for the observation of ants as they vertical galleries educational . No more stress related to an overly large nest. It also means more activity to observe.
• Large digging area for perfect observations and development up to several thousand workers.
• All in one with a large nesting area integrated into the formicarium and a spacious foraging area for food: Space saving.
• Supplied with accessories, heating, food and ants

A premium nest: Made in Germany and entirely of glass, an excellent alternative to the ant farms commonly found on the French and Spanish markets. Completely made of frosted glass. Redesigned by Fourmiculture in France, the Combi Set Kit includes everything you need: a breeding guide, carefully raised ants (queen + eggs + workers), high-quality food, and accessories for heating, feeding, and observation.

Fascinating observations: Observations are easy, and the colony grows throughout the season with the birth of new workers. The substrate thickness is adapted to the species to prevent them from hiding inside. Observations are preserved; the entire life of the colony, usually invisible underground, unfolds before you, vertically.

Integrated ants: a colony of ants raised by us, with a queen, eggs, and a healthy population (a minimum of 10 to 20 workers per generation) ready to dig their nest. The ants are transported in a specially designed tube, ready to be connected to the ant farm for relocation. We guarantee safe transport and delivery.

Guaranteed success: if you lose your colony within 3 months of receiving it, we will provide a new colony.

We are recognized by veterinary services and select the finest colonies from our breeding program (sometimes over a year old). All that remains is to care for them according to the provided Guide to Perfect Ant Keeping!

Easy care: The colony requires little attention because Lasius or Camponotus bees consume the nectar and gradually empty the feeder, and seek out protein, which you should provide 2 or 3 times a week (fresh insects, meat, tuna, sweetened milk, etc.). Messor bees are even simpler, as they feed on seeds that they store in the dry part of the nest and draw from their grain store as needed! However, be careful: humidity management is more delicate with this species, as any excess can harm their reserves.

Regarding humidity, simply keep the substrate moist by applying the liquid directly to the sand using the pipette (never allow it to dry out) over approximately half of the nest. We also recommend placing a lamp (bulb provided) near the nest, monitored by a thermometer, to provide an ideal temperature for larval growth (27°C during the day). In winter, the colony should remain in a cool environment (8-15°C) for 2 to 3 months to ensure its winter dormancy, except for Messor minor, which is active year-round.

Compared to an acrylic terrarium, the Combi Set Diggable Breeding Kit has many advantages:

• Absence of static electricity, which is dangerous for ants
• Healthier bonding
• Durable and ecological materials
• It is not susceptible to scratches during cleaning or from sand
• High-quality manufacturing in Germany
• Ease of maintenance and substrate renovation,
• Special sand for good resistance to collapse.
