Golden rule here is not to try and decide there should or shouldnt be a second garden. Your absence has probably been the reason for their change in behaviour but they will expand when ready. Just do nothing other than what you have been doing and all will be well.

Ric, since Jamie prostituted his colony for the sake of some dosh, I think you are the owner of the biggest colony on here now. Unless anyone else has one bigger (seems like a new thread in the offing?). So lets see some recent pics if you have some.
