Why choose the Premium Messor Plaster Set?

We can well imagine that making a choice is difficult when seeing all the possibilities. That is why we have put together this special set, with which you can be sure of the best and most successful start you can make.

The heart of this setup is formed by the Ant Farm Plaster General. This robust plaster nest is completely handmade and specially designed with a unique central moisture reservoir. From the center of the nest, you easily regulate the humidity with the included sprayer.

The chambers in the middle around the moisture reservoir are shallow (8 mm), so you can perfectly observe the queen and the brood. The chambers on the outside are deeper (12 mm), which is ideal for a large colony of 100+ ants to safely store their winter supply of seeds and ant bread dry. All chambers are connected to each other; let yourself be amazed by how the ants independently arrange this space!

Thanks to our years of experience, this set contains a beautiful full-colour instruction booklet. This manual guides you through the startup phase with clear step-by-step instructions, so you know exactly how to best care for this large colony and optimally use the heating cable.

Because our plaster nests are cast and assembled by hand, the color scheme and material may vary slightly per product, making each nest unique.
