I'm a student you see, and I was wondering what the best way of transporting a colony of ants would be? I could take them by train, or car/van. The journey would be 1.5 - 2.5 hours, and I'm worried about the vibrations not only causing upset, but also maybe damaging their tunnels.
I know some of you have swapped colony's, or plain given them away. what method did you use, size of colony, setup, ect?

How did you get your ants in the first place?

Are they in a testtube? I asume they aren't. A car should be fine as long as the formicarium isnt sliding around.

I had the queen in a test tube at home, then brought her up on the train to uni when the glass setup arrived.
They are now in a glass antfarm approx 2cm x 25cm x 15 cm.
