Never mind, I was looking at the ants wrong

@TheAngelicDefender Hey, thanks for your comments, indeed u were wrong: It's Solenopsis invicta;)

[TheAngelicDefender]

Um, this could be very much wrong, but that colony looks like Solenopsis xyloni, but I'm not sure.

beautiful ants - can you send me a colony?:) pls

[wirthstef]

@Philipp022 Thanks, I am glad that you like some of my videos. No, unfortunately I can't send you a colony. I don't have a colony here. Please also note that Solenopsis invicta is an invasive species and therefore is no suitable ant for a private zoo in Europe...

[Philipp022]

@wirthstef I know that Solenopsis invicta are invasiv but a ant firend have this ants, too. If you have ants - can you sent me? :D sorry but I search people who sent me ants:)

greetings Philipp
