Naturalistic Carpenter Ant Brood Nest | Open-Chamber Design, PETG Formicarium
$28.00
🚀 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: • Naturalistic Wood Grain Aesthetic: Aesthetically designed with a wood-grain structure to provide a more natural, stress-reducing environment for your ants. • Brood-Focus Design: Open internal geometry allows for massive piles of larvae and pupae, making it the ideal "nursery" for growing colonies. • Ironed Precision Surfaces: Industrially ironed top surfaces ensure a 100% flush window fit, eliminating gaps and preventing escapes. • Rot-Proof PETG Construction: Unlike standard PLA, our PETG won't warp or rot under high humidity. • Sidewall Hydration: Built-in reservoir for High-Absorbency Hydration Media. Side-entry design prevents debris from clogging the system and maintains stable humidity. • Easy-Open Maintenance: The window ring system is "Coin-Op"—quickly take the nest apart for cleaning using just a coin.
🛠️ COMPLETE KIT INCLUDES: • 1x Gen 2 Brood Nest (4" x 4") • 1x Medium Hydration Base & High-Absorbency Hydration Media • 1x High-Clarity Polycarbonate Window & Window Ring • 1x "Ant Thorax" Aesthetic Cover & Transparent Red Film • 4x Threaded Venting Plugs (V2) • 2ft of 1/2" x 3/8" Vinyl Tubing
⚙️ MECHANICAL SPECS: • Dimensions: 4" x 4" x 7/8" (Excluding base) • Chamber Depth: ~1/2" (Engineered for large Queens and Majors) • Entry Ports: Four reamed 1/2" nest entrances for easy modular expansion. • Materials: Premium PETG, Polycarbonate, and Tough Resin connectors.
🐜 IDEAL FOR: Established Camponotus (Carpenter Ants) or other large species with ~200 workers and significant brood piles.
⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTES: • Hydration Only: Provides ambient humidity. External drinking water (Feeding Tubes) is required. • Expansion Ready: Standard ports connect seamlessly to other AntersAssemble modules. • Outworld Required: Foraging space is vital—check our shop for compatible outworld designs!
