About this listing

Updated 1/09/26 -------------- Please text me on 0477705817 and let me know which queen/colony you're interested in and I'll send fresh photos. Thanks :) (No trades, just sales, sorry) -------------- (I currently have many queens with pupae so will have plenty of queens available with workers over the next few months if interested in those) -------------- Pick up is from Lalor, 3075, Vic. -------------- For pick up or postage- -------------- 1. Forficata queen with 9 eggs - $110 -------------- 2. Forficata queen with a freshly hatched unmated queen (can potentially be mated) and approx 10 small/medium larvae - $135 -------------- 3. Simillima queen with 4 workers and 5 medium larvae - $135 -------------- 4. Simillima queen with 4 workers and 8 medium larvae - $135 -------------- 5. Pyriformis queen with 6 workers and approx 14 medium larvae - $150 -------------- 6. Pyriformis queen with 7 workers and approx 15 medium larvae - $155 -------------- 7. Nigriscapa queen with no brood - $75 -------------- 8. Banded sugar ant queens without brood - $30 -------------- 9. Banded sugar ant queens with some eggs - $35 -------------- 10. Banded sugar ant queen + 1 worker and some brood - $45 -------------- 11. Pale leg sugar ant queens without brood - $30 -------------- Express postage is $15. I can post to VIC, SA, ACT, NSW and QLD. -------------- Postage is done Monday mornings to ensure they arrive to you asap (usually next day/early Wednesday) -------------- Very important - -------------- 1. Just from my experience as a hobby keeper of 4yrs, not all queens are going to lay during the colder months/or even just the season (including proven queens with workers). If you don't want to wait for brood, please go for queens with brood already. -------------- 2. I'm an insect breeder/seller of 5.5yrs now with 500+ insects shipped across most of Australia without a single death. This also applies to my ant queens shipped over 3yrs. Ants don't always handle postage stress very well however. Whilst I do all I can on my end to ensure their safety, I'm not responsible for how packages are handled by Australia Post or how queens/brood react to the stress of postage (whether queens stress eat brood or die themselves) -------------- 3. I pay for extra insurance on large orders, but Aus post doesn't cover insect deaths, just lost/damaged parcels. Just keep that in mind. So far none have been lost/damaged either! -------------- 4. All my queens are quarantined for 2-3 weeks before being listed to ensure they're healthy. I also retain queens that I believe are acting oddly/not as energetic as I'd like. I never ship out ants I believe are unwell. I'd rather they potentially die in my care than to disappoint a buyer like that. -------------- 5. I provide a Google doc caresheet for anyone interested (sent via text message as Gumtree doesn't allow links) and I am happy to provide support after purchasing if needed (even months down the line. I don't mind!) -------------- Feel free to ask any questions you may have :)
