Ant Farm

Well, we got ourselves some new pets. At least for 1-3 months. C got this ant farm for his birthday. The ants arrived via US mail a couple days ago, and seem to be acclimating just fine. Did you know the ants they sent bite? True. You have to stick them in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to slow them down so you can just dump them in the ant farm. Also, they will kill each other if the ant is from a different colony. How do you know? I'm kind of glad I ordered them instead of collecting some from our back yard! The boys are totally intrigued.
