I got two of these beauties from Vern in a trade, they both came with a small batch of eggs, so I won’t expect workers for a few months. Their similarity to C. Quericola is striking, save for their red legs.

Just checked and saw that the one of these two just got their first worker, I find it weird that both will only have 1 worker each for their first gen.

I have a colony that looks just like those! I also love the red legs.
