Document Summary
The nest is a series of chambers with walkways and tunnels. About 2% of the populaion are soldiers, with a big head. Permanently sealed in the base are the king and queen. The queen is 4 inches long, fucken fatass. It takes him 15 seconds to walk beside her. The queen is an egglaying whore, laying 30,000 eggs a day. The workers are the bitches who carry the eggs of. The workers regurgitate their meals to the queen as a form of feeding. As the workers exchange food between each other, they exchange chemical signals that tell each other informaion. Termites don"t have a larval stage, a perfectly formed animal comes from the egg. These litle fuckers create their own air condiioning system. However, these termite mound holes provide an entrance to mongooses. It also allows for repiles to use the termite mounds because it is warm. Aeilds travel and lose their wings when they mate.
