Darlene is going to be a Mummy!

Darlene (aka The sugar ant formerly known as D) has 3 lovely looking eggs this afternoon! They weren't there this morning, so it looks like she got busy while we were out :-) They eggs are enormous compared to the other queens' eggs. Of course it's not really surprising considering how big she is!

I gave her some mealworm yesterday, but she seems to have been rather offended by it and hidden it behind her cotton wool ball!

Some pictures for you - ain't she pretty?
