Hi, does anyone know why my ants (Camponotus vagus) are gathering in a small group on the lid of their terrarium?
They have water and food and are just awakening from hibernation, barely exploring their fishbowl arena.
When I disturb them they all rush back into their nest, but otherwise they sit motionless right next to each other. It is a small colony, approximately 100 ants with plenty of space to expand .
I'd like to hear your thoughts about what could cause this abnormal behavior
In the Photo i axidentaly disturbed them so most left.
