| Ooops! That's actually V. maculifrons. Nice queen though
When you set up the terrarium, try to find some of that good rotten wood that they like for nest material | |

| Oops my bad. She looked similar to a picture of germanica I saw on the net. My bad. I guess that changes the setup for her? | |

| Well, this species is primarily a subterranean nester so this type of setup would work best (which is the one I used for my maculifrons queen) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWfBf8NF7cQ | |

| I hope she does too. She's lasted a lot longer than my V. squamosa did last summer... Maybe that's a good sign! | |

| Hi, Vulgaris! I'm sad to say that Electra is no longer with us.  She was fine this morning, I don't know what happened. She was lying next to her food this evening, dead.  I wonder what happened. | |
