I've had these queens for quite a while now, but I never made a journal because I thought I was just gonna sell them or release them if I never sold them. Well, I never sold them, and I haven't sold any ants as of yet, but now they've got a batch of around 50 eggs. I think there are 8 queens, but I still gotta properly count once I check on them again. Their eggs should be hatching within a few days, and workers should arrive in a few short weeks. I will be updating soon.

Well, how are they doing? I am hoping to find some of these today, in founding chambers.

Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies.

However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:

Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).
