Yeah mate I am. It was one of those dome ones. Looks like a hamster ball haha I've heard people say sometimes ants can get put but I'm sure we are all more than capable of making something escape proof think it was £14. Max Baker

I once trash talked the ant o spheres... But I've come to appreciate them a little bit more since. Ironically, they are much better without any dirt in them, just watching the ants work their magic in the spheres haha. Otherwise they just dig into the soil and you never see them again!

Haha sounds good! I'm going to get one and modify it if needs be. Ok for a little L. Niger colony Max Baker

Over here they were pretty balanced with the price so buying 4 was no cheaper than buying the 4-pod version. I have that 4 pod version now. No ants in it yet, but hoping to give it another shot in future (haven't had a good try for about a year now)

haha, you could turn each area into a different climate/scenery/soil and see which one the ants like best

Certainly a good idea, but again, it can be a pain to switch around once you've made the ant'o'sphere up and wanna change things... But I'm sure you'll figure out a way you enjoy!
