Well, for the past few days, my father and Aaron have been hunting for ants around the neighborhood but in the end, today, they decided that it was going to be a Bull Ant Farm.
Back in July, I did a Photostory Friday post on ants and had an incredibly fascinating time observing them at work. Now, we can observe them even closer and they truly are very captivating.
I feel a bit bad about 'imprisoning' them this way so maybe we can rotate this batch of ants with another batch in a week or so. I wonder how long they'd last anyway....
I've told Aaron that he needs to give them water and food every two to three days. Lets see how responsible he is :)

That's one thing I never had as a kid. An ant farm.
Also, I had never heard of bull ants. So I went to wikipedia.

Do those things come with leashes?
An interesting lesson in responsibility, Amanda.
I had an ant farm many years ago, and found it fascinating. Aaron will probably enjoy it, too.
