🚚 SHIPPING INCLUDED — NO HIDDEN FEES!
Experience one of nature’s most fascinating caste systems with Pheidole tetra, a native Texas species that’s as educational as it is entertaining.

🧬 Why Pheidole tetra?
• Dual Caste Structure – Pheidole ants are studied extensively for their dimorphic caste system, where major and minor workers specialize in different roles (Wilson, 2003).

• Compact and Adaptable – Excellent fit for test tubes or small modular formicariums.

• Queen + Workers + Brood – A thriving starter colony with all stages of development
• Majors Included – That iconic big-headed look Pheidole fans love
