The creator of the original Ant Farms was Mr. Levine from Uncle Milton. These have been around for years and we all loved them as kids.
The Ant Farm I remember as a child. They were so cool. You could send away for your live ants and the farm from the back of comic books back then. Wait a few weeks and then you had your own little science kit.
Well these have advanced a little bit since then especially with the new gel ant farms but you still can get the Uncle Milton Ant farm with sand from yesteryear. Don't forget to purchase your live ants .
Uncle Milton makes a variety of units such as the original ant farms that we all grew up with. My favorite is the gel based ant farms made of an agar substance where the little critters eat the space age gel. This means we dont have to worry about opening the container and feeding the live ants since they eat this stuff.
