At Queen of Ants, we do things very differently.

Some of you parents may remember having an ant farm as a child…

Traditional toy ant farms can be bought at the toy shop. You put sand inside a thin plastic section, then go into your garden and collect some little worker ants. But you probably ended up disappointed or you lost interest when not much happened…

That’s all changed now. 

Our ant farms are not toys, but legitimate pets, that if cared for properly, can live for many years.

Our ant nests, or formicarium, are designed to comfortably house your ant colony as they grow.  Each nest includes ventilation, water points, easy viewing and a cover so your ants feel cozy and safe.

Feeding and cleaning is easy with secure lids. Each ant farm has expansion points. If your ants outgrow their home, you can connect another nest and keep going.

Our products are in stock in Australia and ready to ship directly to you! We only sell ant equipment that we have inspected and tested ourselves. So you can be sure you are buying nests that will house your ants in comfort!
