Everything you need for a Pheidole pallidula ant colony
This bundle includes everything you need to successfully get a colony of Pheidole pallidula through the first few months. It can be flexibly expanded and is explicitly suitable for getting started in ant keeping.

Ant species Pheidole pallidula
Pheidole pallidula is an omnivorous ant species (it feeds on both plant and animal matter). They are found mainly in southern Europe and the Mediterranean region. Their range extends to North Africa and the Middle East. The workers are divided into two distinctly different castes: the smaller Minor workers and the larger Major workers, often referred to as soldiers.
Pheidole pallidula prefers to live in warm, dry areas and is known for its high adaptability. It forms polygynous colonies (several queens per colony), which allows it to expand rapidly. The species is known for its aggressive defence and rapid recruitment of workers when disturbed.

Nest for Pheidole pallidula
Pheidole pallidula prefers sandy or slightly loamy soils for nesting. Therefore, we have included a Digfix nest insert. This simulates natural sandy soil and at the same time provides a much better view of the chambers and corridors of the nest. In nature, their nests are often found under stones or in crevices. The species is very flexible and can also adapt well to artificial nests, making them ideal for keeping in a formicarium.

Food for Pheidole pallidula
Pheidole pallidula has an omnivorous diet. They collect seeds and small insects and also like to accept honey or sugar solution. In nature, they actively hunt small insects and use their proteins to raise their brood. In addition, they collect seeds in their nest to bridge food shortages.

Opis:
The Digfix Starter Set is suitable for various ant species, especially for those that nest in sand and (dead) wood. It can be kept dry or slightly moist.
The transparent farm can be used with the ANTCUBE Digfix plate. The ants dig their own tunnels and chambers into the material. If required, further modules can be connected via the 50mm holes in the cover, such as the separately available foggers, fans or lights. Alternatively, matching formicaria plugs are included to close the openings. If you prefer, you can also operate the formicarium openly by simply placing the removable frame on the ground and applying ant escape protection oil to its edge. The ‘watering can 2ml – 360 degrees’ is intended for honey/sugar solution, the ‘watering can clear 20ml – sponge’ for water. The ‘Mini Thermo-Hygrometer’ can be attached to the frame or the cover and displays the climate values.

Ważne: Please moisten the ground before use so that the mixture can bind and develop a firm hold in the ant farm. In addition, a ground that is too dry and dusty can cause the ants’ airways to become blocked, causing them to suffocate in the worst case.

Zalecenie: We recommend a layer of substrate 2 mm high so that the animals cannot dig themselves into the arena and instead use the farm provided for that purpose. We also recommend lightly piercing the nesting material in the farm (sand/clay, Digfix, etc.) in one place to make digging easier for the animals.

Uwaga: The nest can be used in a dry or humid formicarium. If the nest is kept permanently wet (too wet), food remains can cause mould to form.

Wskazówka dotycząca Digfix: The natural colour can vary between green-grey-brown and earth-brown. The colour has no influence on the quality.

Uwagi dotyczące gospodarstwa
When connecting or disconnecting tubes, the following should be noted:
If the tube is difficult to fit onto the connector, a drop of our anti-escape oil or powder should be applied to the connector. The tube should then be pushed onto the connector by twisting or screwing it on, without applying any up and down pressure to the connector. The same applies when removing the tubes from the farm connector. Please do not just pull them off!

Notatki na temat krykietowego dżemu:
Our Cricket Jam is an easy way to provide your ants with freshly preserved protein food without having to feed live insects. The crickets (Acheta domesticus) are gently cooked to ensure that nutritional value, taste and aroma are preserved. In addition, the chitinous exoskeleton of the insects is softened in this way so that it can be digested more easily. The collagen protein compounds are split so that the ants can utilise them better. The Acheta domesticus from the tin have the same nutritional value as live crickets, but are easier to digest.
The cricket jam is not suitable for hunting ant species that require live food (e.g. ponerines (uromyid ants) such as Harpegnathos or Odontomachus).
