I am parting from this thread to open my own market. I'll try to start selling colonies (probably not P. californicus) some time soon.

Hello. You said you only ship in CAli? I thought it’s legal to ship them across US now? If so I’m definitely interested in ordering a few

You need a license to import P. occidentalis into California.

110 QUEENS!  :o
Are these queens guaranteed to be fertile?

can't be 100% sure (with any ant), only 7 of them still have wings, 5 with one wing and only 2 have both wings attached out of the 140 Somethinghmm and I caught.
Just saw this now, but I wanted to point out that queen ants have 4 wings. Two larger and two smaller.
