So first...this year I've found three ant queens.

Messor andrei, Pogonomyrmex rugosus and my recent find, Pogonomyrmex californicus.

Both Pogonomyrmex species need it really hot. So, I'm going to build an incubator for them. I looked on google for different ways to build them, it looks really easy. My question is, what temperature should it be for Pogonomyrmex? They are a desert ant and need it pretty hot. I was thinking 100 degrees? Is that too hot? Or 85-95 degrees? Any suggestions?

Thanks. :)
