Anteeny
Anteeny are small Buggems that live in colonies under the supervision of their metamorphosed form: Antqueeny.
They're highly competent at gathering food and building their complex colony tunnels. Anteeny tunnels are complex crisscrossing structures with larger gathering dens built periodically throughout. In the very center they create a large den for their leaders to meet. When they're not taking care of their home they are unstoppable foragers. They can follow food smell for miles and through barriers. Although not considered a pest they are known to dig through basement walls in order to get at stored food stuffs.
Despite their strong work instincts Anteeny are known to have childish personalities. They're highly dependant on the Antqueeny for any conflict or hurt feeling often racing through the den halls to be the first to tattle. Since there are many more Anteeny in a colony they easily overwhelm their caretakers.
As a companion anteeny are highly co-dependant and easily frustrated. they require training to be left on their own outside of their pocket enclosure, otherwise they will burrow, throw tantrums, and hoard food. most people who own Anteeny love having a constant companion with a real ability to help with the household.
