Day 240 – RIP Little Worker 🐜

Added: 2026-05-23

[00:00:00]Day 240.

[00:00:02]Today I was shocked again.

[00:00:04]Another dead ant.

[00:00:06]But then I noticed something interesting.

[00:00:09]There's also a new ant with a slightly bigger and stronger looking head.

[00:00:13]So now I'm thinking these might be the first workers of the colony, the nanitics, reaching the end of their lifespan.

[00:00:19]These first tiny workers help the queen start the colony and they usually don't live as long as later generations.

[00:00:25][music] And honestly, looking at the amount of eggs now, there could easily be 50 to 100 [music] future workers developing.

[00:00:34]So, we'll see how this colony evolves from here.

[00:00:37]For now, rest in peace, little workers, and thank you for your service.
