$28.00
πŸš€ OPTIMIZED BROOD NEST – NATURALISTIC CARPENTER ANT HABITAT
Give your colony the space they need to thrive. This 4"x4" Brood Nest is specifically engineered for established Carpenter Ant colonies, featuring a unique open-chamber design that allows workers to pile brood naturally, just as they would in a hollowed log.

✨ GEN 2 ADVANCED ENGINEERING:
β€’ Naturalistic Wood Grain Aesthetic: Aesthetically designed with a wood-grain structure to provide a more natural, stress-reducing environment for your ants.
β€’ Brood-Focus Design: Open internal geometry allows for massive piles of larvae and pupae, making it the ideal "nursery" for growing colonies.
β€’ Ironed Precision Surfaces: Industrially ironed top surfaces ensure a 100% flush window fit, eliminating gaps and preventing escapes.
β€’ Rot-Proof PETG Construction: Unlike standard PLA, our PETG won't warp or rot under high humidity.
β€’ Sidewall Hydration: Built-in reservoir for High-Absorbency Hydration Media. Side-entry design prevents debris from clogging the system and maintains stable humidity.
β€’ Easy-Open Maintenance: The window ring system is "Coin-Op"β€”quickly take the nest apart for cleaning using just a coin.
