An ant colony is like a little kingdom. They are thousands of ants living in an ant colony. They belong to different types, but they are very united.

The most important member of the ant colony is the queen. She lays thousands of eggs to make up the colony. The ant babies, called the larvae, hatch from the eggs and they stay in a nursery. When they grow up, Some become workers,and some become soldiers. The workers build the colony and find food. The soldiers protect the colony. They all work very hard. Ants are not lazy at all!
