The Ant Antics Small Nest - Enhanced
Designed with growing ant colonies in mind, the small nest offers the perfect next step for colonies that have outgrown their initial nest but are not quite ready for a medium sized habitat.
Part of our Enhanced Nesting Range, this nest builds on the trusted Ant Antics modular system with upgraded hydration, improved moisture retention, refined ventilation and brass threaded inserts for easier, longer lasting use. It is ideal for keepers who want greater control over their colony’s nesting environment while keeping the setup simple, clean and easy to expand.
What Is Included:
- Cartref Bach Enhanced Small Nest in your chosen colour, Ash Grey, Charcoal, Fern, or Bamboo
- High strength ant safe gypsum nest sections
- Nest to nest connector for easy setup
- 2 blank plates for versatile connections
Key Features:
- Enhanced Modular Design:
- Seamlessly connect to other products in the Ant Antics range, including test tubes, hubs, outworlds, pipes and other nesting products. The modular layout allows you to expand and adapt your setup as your colony grows.
Advanced Hydration Control:
Each section is individually hydratable, giving you greater control over moisture levels throughout the nest. The high strength gypsum offers improved moisture retention, helping maintain humidity for longer and reducing how often hydration is required.
Improved Airflow:
The ventilation has been designed to help reduce dead space air and keep airflow moving through the nest. This helps create a more balanced nesting environment while still supporting the humidity needs of your colony.
Ant Safe Gypsum:
The gypsum used in the Enhanced Range is completely ant safe and contains no anti mold additives, making it suitable for ants and brood.
Durable Brass Inserts:
Brass threaded inserts make the nest easier to use, more secure when connecting parts and better suited to repeated setup changes over time.
Fully Expandable:
The small nest Enhanced connects with every other product in the Ant Antics range, making it a flexible choice for keepers who want a nest system that can grow with their colony.
