AntCamLive - Yes !!! It's working... Come see and chat :)

Hey everyone, it's an exciting day! I've finally got the 'Antcam' livestream up and running. πŸŽ‰ Today, we'll be testing it out together and later, I'll be moving the entire setup to the attic. Once that's done, it'll automatically go live every day when there's daylight. ☀️

This Lasius Niger ant colony has been accustomed to daytime lighting ever since I caught the Gyne (queen) on July 7, 2023. Both the test tube nest setup and the small feeder outworld are placed in a spot where they receive indirect daylight, never direct sunlight, of course. 😎

So, let's enjoy this sneak peek into the ant world together! Feel free to drop your questions and comments in the chat. Let's get started!" πŸœπŸ“Ή #AntcamLive #AntAdventures
