Yea they accepted 3 queens for some reason.

Is it just me that likes the look of ant brood? It just reminds of you how well an ant colony is doing.

Wow they are going to explode in population. Good luck. (I want to try this but I don't want them to die maybe next year when I catch many.)

All four seem pretty metal to me, both in name and in appearance...
