Buy Camponotus fedtschenkoi

If you choose to buy a Camponotus fedtschenkoi, you're buying an ant that's somewhat different from most other ants. This is especially true for the fact that these ants aren't native to Europe, but are found primarily in Asia. This immediately highlights a major difference from buying Camponotus herculeanus, which, for example, does originate in Europe.

The queen can reach a considerable length

The queen of this ant colony can certainly be called rather long. She can reach a length of between 15 and 18 millimeters. Even now, the worker ants remain rather small, at a maximum of 9 millimeters. The soldiers, on the other hand, can reach a length of between 10 and 18 millimeters. Another remarkable thing about buying Camponotus fedtschenkoi is the fact that these ants don't hibernate.

The ants enjoy a temperature between 22 and 29 degrees Celsius

Ants thrive in temperatures between 22 and 29 degrees Celsius. Ideally, ensure a temperature between 25 and 27 degrees Celsius. This is where these ants feel most comfortable. The ant's nest is also important, of course. You can choose between ytong and plaster, as these nests thrive best in these conditions.

Buying a camponotus fedtschenkoi means you are buying a large and brightly colored ant

If you decide to buy the Camponotus fedtschenkoi, there are no special features to note regarding these ants' diet. They enjoy insects, sugar water, and honeydew, which is true for almost all ants. What's also not particularly surprising is that this ant belongs to the Formicinae subfamily. What is, however, striking is the fact that these are large and bright yellow ants that truly stand out.

The growth of this ant is initially quite slow

Initially, this ant's growth can be quite slow. On the other hand, you're dealing with a truly beautiful ant that also stands out for its exemplary behavior. What more could you ask for as an ant keeper? Absolutely nothing, right? It's therefore logical that more and more people who want to start their own ant colony are choosing this ant.

There was a problem with the order, but they handled it very quickly and efficiently.
A truly great store.
Jan
Ordered three times in the past month and a half. Good and quick answers to questions via chat, and the Camponotus Nicobarensis colony was well packaged and arrived healthy (with workers and brood).
Daan
I recently ordered ants (Camponotus Cruentatus species).
They arrived very healthy and are already living in their formicarium with the outside world; they love the food I put in them.
I use the beetle jelly cups, which my ants prefer.
A jelly cup is large, and I can use it for a very long time.
If they need a little protein, I use a container of mealworms, which I also ordered from here.
I'm very satisfied and recommend this shop to everyone.
Greetings from Belgium, Daan

Visited the showroom last week, it was a pleasure to see it.
I bought a Polyrhachis dives colony and accessories, everything was perfectly arranged.
Bodhi Dubbelman
In my opinion, the best ant dealer in the Netherlands. I ordered three colonies, and they're all in top condition. Communication is also excellent.
Maykel Schollen
I received my Polyrhachis colony a few weeks ago. It wasn't my first purchase here, but as always, it was neatly packaged and shipped quickly. The ants look great and healthy; they've already been building quite a bit, so I'm very happy with them.
Thomas Overman
I've placed a few orders, everything was great! Last time, something went wrong, but I received an immediate response and a solution, plus a bonus. Excellent service.
Boaite
I have pheidole pallidula and Camponotus nicobaresis, they arrived all well. I bought pheidole, 100+ workers, so there was immediately a small outside world, many brothers, at the end of the holiday, so already 200 and the nicobaresis is also doing well.

Top service.
Mohammed
Very good quality, the queen arrived alive and healthy. There was plenty of seed and plenty of larvae and brood. The colony had 13 workers at the time of delivery. A truly enjoyable species to keep, and it's definitely worth ordering this and observing the ants. Definitely worth the small price.

Tip: be very careful and keep them in one place as much as possible; they are very sensitive.
Evan
I ordered fruit flies yesterday, and they arrived by mail today. Excellent quality and service! I'll be ordering more food soon :)
Pim Bouwens
Very fast and efficient delivery of the products. Everything was neatly packaged, and I was kept informed by email. I'm very satisfied; you've gained a loyal customer!
Ernst Bruinsma
Received the ants I ordered today. They were very well packaged and all delivered in good condition. Thank you. This webshop is highly recommended. Good, fast, and professional.
Dano
Ordered a colony a few days ago; it was well-packaged and delivered quickly. There were slightly fewer ants than ordered, as Perry himself had mentioned. I believe that's why he included extra Beatle Jelly. Truly excellent service, definitely recommended!
Carl Boeckx
I received my Aphaenogaster gibbosa colony today after a slight delay at PostNL. But after a call with Quality Ants, I was reassured that the animals would arrive safely.

This is a top-notch service.
Nick
I ordered a Camponotus fedschenkoi. It was clearly packed with great care and arrived safely. Last year I ordered a Messor barbarus queen from here, and a year later, they're also doing great. A wide selection for a great price.

In short, highly recommended.
Johan Roos
Ordered a few more things from Perry, the order arrived very quickly, and it looked great again!
I highly recommend them to everyone; they deliver quickly and the quality of the products is top-notch!
Thanks again, Perry!

Joshua Krale
I bought a bunch of ants, all arrived in good condition, securely packaged. Delivered within a day, so a shipment that gets used right away!

This is a good website, a very large selection for a good price. I have now ordered the Messor Capitatus and have immediately been told that it will be shipped
