I will not reply to every comments Just to defend or justify things. those who appreciates and like the video, thank you, but you don't need to argue with others in the comments. To those who disliked and disappointed with the video I understand. all I can say is I'm sorry, and I respect everyone's opinion.
The reason they are friendly is because they are only a couple months old, and they are still mainly focused on surviving than fighting so I would suggest that you have 2 colonies fight each other after like 6-9 months so they can become strong enough to defend themselves.
I love your videos I’m like in subscribe I watch every video you post
I really want a fire ant colony to grow but not to go war but there are not fire ants in my area, i want fire ants as they are active and strong and always hungry for protein, just wish i could get one or find one but never have, great video by the way and just wish you could send me a fire ant queen
Great video, ya never know how nature will react
don't listen to these hypocrites. keep em coming!
If you think this is “animal abuse” or something. I literally drowned an entire ant hill with boiling kettle water so come at me instead
I exposed a furry convention to mustered gas.
Ans those people clearly don’t know how many ants die per second. There are huge ant wars where thousands of ants die per second. This is nothing compared to them
@@waduckbills2411 where can I do that
AntsCanada poured boiling water and molten aluminum on two different fire ant nests
I killed a whole colony with alcohol.
The ants: sup dude
The other ants: sup dude
i think antscanada needs to see this one!
he tried this and failed :/
@@mrturtle5412 he done it so wrong.
@@LegendKiller246 well he did it to merge the colonies to save space, not for them to fight specifically so...
Wait who antscanada? Cuz I haven't watched him in a very long time
He would fucking cry
Ants canada ☮✌🏳
D colony 🏴☠️⚔🔥
This is what we call “Supercolonies”. It is when ants of the same species decides to combine their forces into one massive colony.
Fire ant colonies do not accept any other colony it's either your related or you die
@@somebomberkid uh, I think this video summarily disproves that statement lol
@@CreativeLolita @noone uh, i guess people like talking to air?
I’m not sure if fire ants can have more than one queen
@@MintPawYT the video literally talks about a fire ant species that's polygynous
Tbh, I don’t really care about ant wars, but seeing time lapses on colonies growing truly amazes me! Maybe you can make another one.
ikr
@@huseynmammadov1290 haha
Ant wars are bettr
@@huseynmammadov1290 W
@@huseynmammadov1290 theres a reason you only got 5 likes :joy:
The problem is that these guys have a similar ancestor nest and thus have the same sent as each other. Use different ones like fire ants and bullet ants.
that's what I was thinking too. Mabey they both came from the same colony before mating, causing them to act that way.
I think next experiment 3 opposite colonies 🤔
Scent*
wrr
This are fire ants
Do it again with a better set up. Bigger and with an easy access to clean. Also, much bigger. The cramped-ness causes them to die due to stress.
Actually that is probably not the cause, that setup is pretty ok sized
Easter girlfrien
@@mlplmlpplmplim8482 Umm no. That setup was definitely not adequately sized. Ant colonies can be gigantic if the conditions are bigger.
@@boogermills3304 peter Griffin
@Joel N they need guns
Redo again with a more elaborate setup but with three tanks. Each colony has a full size enclosure with everything they need and a third enclosure that's purely for food and water resource gathering and watch the sister colonies grow up together.
Yes
Ive always had the idea of starting my own mini civilization this sounds really fun
Be Careful tho don't let those little ants escape or u will get bit everywhere
PLES PLAY WORLDBOX
A good example of when there’s enough resources for both sides there isn’t a reason to fight?
i love seeing how insects or animals react to situations and see what they do to stop the problem
this specie actually is pretty prone to not fight other nests of it's own kind, but rather live in harmony or join up into a super colony because it vastly increases their odds at survival and dominate the land like that
did you hear from ants Canada?
only works in a few species
@@CheeseCurd_0-0 not rly, i kinda study ants myself.
and yeah, solenopsis is kinda known for it
Thanks for wasting my time
I've always wanted to see two ant colonies fight and how it would go this is super cool
Solenopsis geminata are known to be polygynous in some regions as well. 2 or 3 queens can found together with no problem, I've seen several polygynous colonies already
Yes
annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnntttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
THE WILD MARTIN proved that solenopsis geminata can have multiple queens but colony fusion has not been recorded before i wish these colonies achieved it
In solenopsis geminata Multiple queens can found together, but upon the arrival of the nanitics only one queen will be tolerated by them and kill the others. I've tried it multiple times as ant keeper, and pleometrosis is a thing on this species, but I don't know what happen if the queens are away from each other like on this video..
@@sirrobertalcantara1057 solenopsis geminata have majors, right? i didnt see any major here
@@tincatinca1571 Probably because the colony wasn't mature enough to start producing majors yet or this could be another specie in the genus Solenopsis.
You shoulda done it with 2 different species but that was a very interesting result at the end.
yeah
try: yellow crazy ant too
Should’ve done fire ants and
Leafcutters
@@allahistherealgod2627 I dont think hd can find leafcutter ants in his region
It doesnt matter what species they are, as mated queens develop a different scent after leaving the nest
This feels like an allegory of human history.
I truly love watching things about Ant and how there life works so...I like it
I would suggest trying the same approach but with more an 1-1 additional out-world for each colony that they can use as garbage site. I would be delighted to learn more about the behavior of this species and whenever this non-agressive behavior between two colonies could be replicated
That's very interesting, that the two colonies joined forces. You should definitely try to repeat the result.
You must have spent so long to set this and cause this battle. you legend
I definitely would love to see a redo of this with a much more thought out setup! Maybe try two different aggressive species?
Can you try to do this again but with more mature colonies and maybe even different species of ants
For the record..
I have 5 colonies of temnothorax (acorn ants) each in there own nest but sharing the same outworld.
Only 1 feeding area and water feeder all living happy together.
BUT I was told it could not be done as they would fight.....but they are quite happy together!
No one had tried it, so I did, with sucess!
Wow that's awesome buddy. There's always ways to find out.
I used to piss on ant nests as a kid just to see what happens and somehow my piss killed all the ants 😂
Ok youll probably get a kick out of this- when i was a kid, i lived on a pretty good size bit of land in rural florida. Well, i was a terrible student at school, and so every report card would be bad, and my parents put me on 'restriction' for a while, trying to motivate me. I was so bored that i would watch the bull ants in their beds, etc. In time i learned to catch bull ants, i would crouch, gently pinch the ant, roll him gently (to remove sand) then drop him, unharmed, into a mason jar. I got so good at this, that at times i could have the bull ants three inches deep in the jar, with almost NO sand at the bottom. Now: i know this is trivial, (i was 12 or so) but very few people have experienced the sound of a jar with that many (annoyed) ants in it! I tell you it sounds like being above a soccer stadium full of cheering, roaring people-in miniature! The smell is odd too, the ants clearly emit a 'chemical' odor. Not offensive, just odd. Well, i eventually learned how to catch 'carpenter ants too, and THATS tricky, they are quick and have serrated mandibles (jaws) for chewing through old wood, etc. In central florida, both these types of ants are common. The third kind of ants i found (on occasion) were long black ants, that always seemed to be alone, on their way somewhere. (As opposed to in colonies) someone told me they were called 'traveller' ants. Ok: one afternoon i made a 'colliseum' out of builder sand my dad was using for something. Then i collected about 50 bull ants, about 30 carpenter ants, and (i could only find about 7) traveller ants. All in seperate jars. I fixed up the 'colliseum' with walls of sand so the ants couldnt escape, and dumped the ants in. The level 'floor' of the colliseum was about 8 inches by ten. Immediately the ants began fighting, and in a few minutes i realized the long but thinner 'traveller' ants were very good fighters! (This surprised me because they had the smallest 'jaws' of all the ants engaged. The carpenter ants did ok, were quite aggressive, but the standard 'bull' ants had tougher, almost 'shell' like bodies. The bull ants were more or less winning, because of this, and there were more of them. Each 'traveller' ant would require 4 or 5 bull ants to subdue it. My mom called me in for dinner, and when i came back out 30 minutes later, the bull ants had won the battle, and-get this- had piled up the dead in orderly, SEPERATE piles! It never occured to my A.D.D. a.s.s to make extra credit at school!
kinda cruel i got sad when i saw the little guy trying to dig his way out to expand :(
What a boatic ending for the ant nest they preferred to Die rather than go to war over resources.
Honestly I came here to see them fight to the death(very evil thing to want to see) , but what I saw was unity in life and death.
If those two ant nests figured out a way to coexist with a stranger ant nests through a harsh time, maybe Some day we will too 🐜🐜❤️🧡.
These ants proved they are better than humans.
The guy who created this video sounds a lot like that Jaso guy from Clash of Clans fame.
thats gotta be solenopsis invicta bc the super majors comes in 4 months and still none but big soldiers. that means its solenopsis invicta
Fire ants are known to have super colonies which means the queens were actually work together
I DARE YOU TO DO A 2V2 ANT WAR!!! LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!
This is how Aliens are with us lol we’re the ants 😂🫠
If you try to do a dual queen/colony setup with this species you should it's information that isn't a common occurrence and if on a long term the dual queen/colony maintains a co existence that's just adding to the ant keeping hobby and overall understanding of this particular species as a whole. But I'll be honest I didn't expect that at all.
I got... really suprised with the result of your test, if i need to be honest, i was also expecting a ant war to happen, but they didn't became hostile to each other, but instead, they worked like they we're one single colony of fire ants.
I went to search for awnsers if something like that was actually possible, and it looks like there can be one or multiple queens at the same time, depending on the species of the fire ants, i do think it is possible to happen, but only with some certain species of fire ants, not all, but a few of them.
I don't want to transform this comment into a debate discussion, is just for... to make things clear for what i was able to find to make sure if everything was right.
I Dare you to make a cheap ant farm.
Good job on your diy's I love them.
I dare you to catch a whole FIRE ANT colony with JUST 1 BOX! [Laughs sinisterly while saying it >:) ]
For every question about this, raises 2 more questions?
It is good you have it all documented, but so many questions!
You need to resurch about the sp of fire ant you have.
Great vid' by the way.
Yes buddy, Im doing some research but needs some proofs, cause according to ant wiki there's only 1 fire ant specie on my country.
Soooo you set out to make a war, and created a supercolony by accident. Ants Canada set out to make a supercolony, and made a war by accident. Hmmm.
Im glad this ants differrent races not racist 🙏🙏😇
I’m sure some people consider this animal abuse, but consider this as a learning experience so that you can observe and learn about how ants function when put close to eachother. Oh and btw thousands if not millions of ants die in any wars everyday
Next time make all colony’s fight😅😅😅
From what I've heard fire ants tend to have multiple queens or will combine with another fire ant colony
no fire aunts attack any aubt that isnt from there colony
It's actually the opposite, fire ants will always go to war against any other colony
Whoa buddy i just got inactive for a while and now you have alot more supporters!! Keep up the good work buddy 😀
Anyways nice vid buddy👍
Thats crazy even solinopsis will kill each other gemanata hate each other this make no sence but good work on setting this up next time if you do it try gemanata and destructors thats a good show for a bit
Do this with 5 colonies
this is off topic, but the the formicarium you reviewed and gave a 9/10 on your dec 1 2020 video, can you put trap jaw ants in it if you put a small amount of substrate/soil/sand inside the nest so they can spin their cocoons?
Yes buddy that will do, you can also put substrate just in the outworld, the ants will carry how much they need.
The content is good I just don’t like the ai voice
Ant B ant:"sees ant A eggs" "whisles"
Ant b ant:yoink oooops
D colony your vid is amazing it's really cool to watch the ant how they do can you make more ant vid 👍👑🙂❤️🌎
Wow! I saw my dare 😁 but not lucky enough. Ginoo
👍🏻👍🏻
Imagine people getting mad about ants fighting but never complain about animals getting killed for meal 🤣
I like meat e
what about animals that kill other animals for meat?
Most of them were ant keepers too, I bet they will complain about the raoches or any feeder insects for animal abuse.
Heres an idea can you do a war between ants wasps bees and termites
Great video
I already have theorized that fire ants can join forces, even though they are supposed to be a solitary queen ant species(or SQ or MQ ant species for short)
And this can make fire ants even tougher than we thought, but later those ants will go to war, and even brood raids.
If there's food everywhere they'll be at peace but when food is scarce they will begin attacking eachother
AntsCanada won't be happy😂😂
@@solenopsiskeeper1343 who actually cares for ants
@@myronmettendaf3809 the millions of people that keeps ants
@@solenopsiskeeper1343 bruh no
he said he aggress with evrething other people say
he actually loves ants
he dint do this for the money or else it would be obvious
I definitely want to see a continuation with a better set up!
I DARE U TO DO BULLET ANTS VS FIRE ANTS AND MAKE THEM HAVE WAR
But give them a bigger cage or home I guess lol.
pretty interesting! what about another species like termites for colony b?
@Cody Not always.. termites have strong soldiers with VERY strong jaws.
Like the film antz that would be cool
@@tearex12345 Mostly....
First
Good to know even ants can commit war crimes in Yugoslavia
Yes isn’t abuse that happens every day in the wild 😂 and it’s an ant lol
It would be more interesting to watch colony’s grow
Honestly the mistake that this guy made he should have only had only one cockroach place in the center not to separate water and cockroaches, because they had no real reason to fight each other.
I was thinking the same thing. Its possible that he was spoiling them a little too much and everyone was happy
I think you should do that
This was completely unexpected and interesting awesome video
You have to find out their actual species! And I'd love to see more videos like this!!! (Needs better voice though)
I honestly thought that ants would naturally make a garbage site.
They do buddies, but the site was on their nest which is also their 1st outworld. They didn't established a new site in the joint outworld and continue to use the old one which is in their nest site.
I just started owning my ant colony! And there doing great but I think my queen is infertile
Bro is the mad scientist from empires of the undergrowth lol
If you caught the queens near each others them might have been from the same colony, and sometimes they conjoin if they are closely related enough.
They develop different scents though, so i dont think it matters if they were from same anscestor nest
the mistake is u give them water instead of pesticide.
What is pesticide?
@@lukabuyens1397 Take out the first 4 letters and you’ll get it. It’s a harmful product for insects
Great video dude! every vid of your that i see, i learn more and more about the great ants, so cool! ;-)
I think the best way would be two different colonies and same production for about 3 months and give them a bigger nest
A good test would be between solenopsis invicita, the dominant invasive ant in the southern united states and the Tetramorium caespitum, the dominant invasive ant in the northern united states. Some hypothesize that the tetramorium ant is one of the ants that helps prevent the fire ants expansion--though others don't believe the fire ant can survive northern climates very well.
Someone please help me. I've got a Camponotus Consobrinus Sugar Ant Queen from antshop Australia. The Queen was doing good but when I went to feed the Queen and it's first worker they ran out of the test tube. I was told to put it in the outworld+nest I bought so I did. The queen only had one worker for about 2 week. Today I checked up on them and the worker seemed to be dead. I then noticed one of the larvae was gone. I assumed the Queen ate it because of stress. All this happened despite them have plenty of sugar water and normal water. The Queen then moved out of the nest. Anyway. I feel like every thing is going wrong and I've lost 3 months progress. Please tell me what I can do to try and solve this problem.
idk much about ants but i would suggest a different food source if they arent responding to sugar water such as live bugs or maybe a plant of some sort maybe its not the species of ant you think it is and it may not like sugar water
bro too early you should have put outworld + nest later, like at 50 workers not 1 worker
@@chedex93 I know but the person I bought it from recommended I put it in the outworld to feed it, in new to ant keeping so I did exactly that
@@Minecraftontop282 I bought it from a shop and the person I bought it from said they would eat the sugar water. If i do feed it other things is the Queen Anne to footage on her own?
I recommend to not give them a suger water tube at that stage. Give them crushed cricket legs and some honey every 3 to 4 days because if you check on them everyday the queen will eat the eggs and make sure the test tube is filled with fresh water and try have no mold if there is mold let them move to another tube by using tape on it.
Love your work 😍
I dare you to put two queens together at first when they start colonies and see if they kill each other
Thats brutal
Another ant war please thats my dare
i dare you too use your real voice
I know everyone is complaining about how this is cruel, but I'm 99.99% sure everyone here has killed at least 40 ants up to now.
Not just the antwomen but the antchildren too 😂
I watched ants go to war and kill them what did you expect lol
@@theark1400 I HATE DEM! 😡
40?
I've eaten ants before, take that nature.
When I was a kid I used to find the giant ant hills with my cousins, there was 3 of us including me, one person sprayed them with his dads pressure washer, one got a shovel and started going at it, and one poured salt all over them.
Most interesting video i saw fully
Quite a few of solenopsis species can have multiple queens
Almost all of them
Theif ants and fire ants can

this was cool. thanks for the work you put in! can you share where you get your containers and supplies?
Ngl this was extremely entertaining and ethical because they are invasive. I don’t know why some comment are so negative
Yea this would be amazing to do it again if we can have an ant war but do two different types that are kind of on the same level. Hope you will be able to do this again soon cool video tho.
Time to play god and see who shall rise or fall awsome
U have to shake the container and they will think the other people are the enemy
Dude...........
Uncool. #wedontapprove
Btw I dare you to raise a termite colony
I approve
These are invasive ants not native. So I don't think it is bad. But it is true that it's hard to watch.
Wuss
I did too when I stepped on a ant hill. Sorry ant's people 😂😂😂
this was awesome do again with bigger battle ground
Sad. I hoped you where better than this
what does that mean
Great video buddy!
