My growing fire ant colony (the Phoenix Empire) is so big and hungry now, I felt they were ready to take their next step at becoming true fire ants, and engage in their first killing for food. Initially, when the colony was composed of just nanitics (first gen fire ants) the workers were frail and fearful of anything large and moving. But now, the colony is composed of a much more powerful worker force capable of being the predators nature has designed them to be. Watch what the fire ants do to the prey item I place into their outworld, how it fights back, and how it ultimately benefited the colony. Ant love forever! This video was shot in 4K Ultra HD resolution. #FireAnts #PhoenixEmpire
