Giant Ant Farm Review

This was a great find. The only problem we had with it is that it came put together wrong and we almost broke it trying to figure out what was wrong with it. So it did not stay together well once we figured it out. The two big pieces were not mixed. One was up the other was down. Took us a long time to realize that. But all in all a great farm, its big and lots of fun!

Ant farms are sadistic . . . - Margot Poznanski -
Basically, this is a little ant gas chamber. The ants cannot possibly survive no matter how nicely you treat them. Mold forms on the food you have fed them and slowly they all die off. They make some interesting tunnels for a while and then they die. This is not an ant colony because there are only worker ants and if you know anything about ants at all, they have no purpose without their queen.
So basically, I just felt sorry for the ants, even though it is pretty hard to feel sorry for ants. My son and daughter (including the offspring who had begged and pleaded to get it) lost interest in it even before the ants all died. I put it in the garage and no one has said a word about "where is the ant farm?"
Maybe this sounds a little harsh, but it's honest. Save your money for nature camp. Thanks.
Ant farm - C. Chapman - Madison, WI
I think the ant farm is great, but the ants do not live long. It has been three weeks since I received the ants and I have one left. I only gave them bottled water this time, and it did not help. The instruction book inside the ant farm box states they live a few months. When I talked to someone from Uncle Milton, they said 3 - 4 weeks. That is not a long time.
A Total Rip-off! - Animal Lover -
I was so excited when I got this product, so I sent off for the ants. I waited a very long time for the ants, and when they finally arrived, over half of them were dead. There were only less than 15 still alive, most of which died in the first few days. Only about four ants lived for the first week. They barely made any tunnels in the two weeks that they lived. When I was doing some research on ants, I found out that ant colonies can't survive without a queen. You can't order a queen for this ant farm, so the ants die! It is made just to fail and for you to waste your money. If you love animals and don't want to cause suffering to them, please don't buy this product.
