Queen Ants are Obtained by examining plants.
This option is not availible on wood bearing trees, cacti, or thorn-giving plants.
The hotkey "E" will also accomplish this task.

Queen ants used to die if kept in inventory for more than 5 minutes. But they now live in inventory for at least 24 hours regardless of whether you have any fresh leaves in your inventory.

Myrmecology Allows the building of an Ant Colony for our Queen ants.

Ants gain 3 health every time teppy week ticks over with the max health being 21.
Prior to 9 of 21 health ants show no behaviour other than requiring 21 of the freshest leaf per teppy week
AT 9 health my ants produced 2 Mandibular Glue. At the time of this edit we have no idea what this means or what it is used for. - Diania 27/3/2009
It appears that glue does not have to be removed, but can be stored as would cobra skins or crushed eggs shells are, that is, within the tank. 18/4/2009 Diania
Ants reproduce babies every 21 days and the health of the tank goes down to 0
Ants can survive at least 14 hours without leaf in their tank
2 queen ants can survive in the same tank for at least 2 days 5/5/2009 Diania
