Shipping Status: RED – Dispatch Paused
Our twins are being born by planned C-section on Monday! 🩷💙
Orders are still open and are very much appreciated, but any orders placed now will be shipped from Monday 24 August, as long as everything goes according to plan.
For a short time afterwards, we’ll dispatch orders on Mondays and Thursdays only while we find our feet as a family of six. We’ll return to our usual Monday–Friday dispatch schedule as soon as we’re settled.
Thank you for your patience and for supporting our small family business during this special time.
Guides To Ant Keeping
Starting your journey into ant keeping can feel daunting—there’s so much to learn about different species, habitats, diets, and colony care. That’s why we’ve created these beginner-friendly guides to help make everything clear and manageable.
Whether you're wondering how to care for your first queen ant, what to feed your ants, or understand the unique needs of different colonies, this is the perfect starting point. Our step-by-step advice will help you avoid common mistakes, build confidence, and enjoy the fascinating world of ants. These guides are for personal use only and are not to be used commercially without permission.
Some of the care sheets below are still a work in progress and not yet fully completed. You may also encounter hyperlinks that lead to dead ends, as those sections are still being finalized.
Please bear with us as I’m working hard to get everything finished as quickly as possible. We decided it was better to make the incomplete care guides available to help beginners now, rather than waiting until everything was perfect. Thank you for your patience and understanding!
