About this listing

I am selling this 3 Queen 20+ worker (~20 eggs, 6 cocoons) Jack Jumper colony because I am taking a break from ant keeping and no longer have the time to care for them. I started this colony two years ago from the three queens who I introduced to each other from the beginning as a test. The three queens have not fought once and have each laid eggs for the colony and hence have grown quite fast (so I'd say the test worked out rather well). With the right care and diet, I believe this colony has potential to grow very large, very quickly. The colony is housed in an Ants Australia Y-tong nest small and a DIY outworld. The colony may fare alright via postage but only the Y-tong nest will be posted (I cannot guarantee full safety via postage so I prefer local pick up). However unlikely, only a partial refund will be granted if the colony arrives in poor condition   via postage . I am based in Melbourne but I am happy to personally deliver the colony and even travel interstate (Adelaide, Canberra, Sydney) to ensure the colony arrives in good condition although it may cost extra depending how far I have to travel and a small security deposit to cover travel cost may be needed. The price is negotiable but not via trades.  If you are interested, please message me on 0491658827 and I can provide more information or photos.

The seller will confirm current condition, handover arrangements and any species-specific care details before a trade is agreed.
