Complete Guide: Ant Breeding for Beginners
Getting Started with Ant Breeding
Before diving deep, we recommend reading our comprehensive guides: "Basic" and "Farm Start Up" that cover everything from A to Z about ant breeding for beginners.
Choosing Your Formicarium
A proper formicarium is essential for successful ant breeding. Here’s what you need to know:
- Types: Acrylic or plaster formicaria (vertical or horizontal)
- Essential components:
- Nest chamber
- Arena
- Humidification chamber
Selection Criteria for Your First Formicarium
- Match it to your chosen ant species
- Consider your available space
- Focus on functionality
- Choose one you’ll enjoy watching
Choosing Your First Ants
For beginners, select species that are:
- Forgiving of beginner mistakes
- Able to thrive at room temperature
- Easy to feed (e.g., Messor, Camponotus, or Lasius species)
Setting Up Your Colony
Key considerations for colony placement:
- Avoid direct sunlight
- Choose a quiet location away from vibrations
- Maintain proper humidity
Feeding Guidelines
Different species require different diets:
- Messor: Primarily grains with occasional insects
- Lasius/Camponotus: Sugar syrup (1:2 – 1:3 ratio) and protein sources
- Feeding frequency: Every 1-3 days for small colonies, daily for larger ones
Care Tips
- Place a water source in the arena
- Remove uneaten food promptly
- Maintain proper humidity levels
- Plan ahead for absences
Frequently asked questions
My order hasn't arrived yet. What to do?
Sometimes there are cases that the courier company has problems with delivery (delay in delivery or the package is lost). In any case, first try to contact the delivery person, if this does not give you anything, please contact you and we will solve your issue!
To which countries do you deliver orders?
If you live in any EU country, then without any doubt, order and don’t worry about your order, and it is best to use DHL parcel delivery. If you are located outside the EU area, then please contact us so that we can provide you with information on the possibility of delivery to your country, as well as inform you about the price of delivery and guarantees.

How quickly do you process orders?
In 99% of cases we ship as quickly as possible, even on the day of order. Most often in Poland, orders are accepted and dispatched until 11-14 o’clock and then the parcel usually arrives the next day. Deliveries within Europe usually take 2 to 4 days.
Do you have a delivery guarantee?
Of course, this is where we differ. We provide a full 100% guarantee on delivery of the entire product. If a dead colony arrives, we will send you a new one or refund your money for the colony. But remember to take a video of the unpacking of your order.
