How'd that get up there? Did the queen just lay an egg on herself or did a worker think that would be a nice place to display the egg.
She likely accidentally touched and egg pile with her thorax and it got stuck there. It happens a lot with larger, clumsier queens.

Pheidole Tysoni, Selonopis Molesta, Brachymyrmex Depilis, Tetramorium Immagrians, Prenolepis Imparis, Pheidole Bicirinata

I have some great news I caught another queen! Not modoc but likely/hopefully nearcticus! She already has eggs and acts like she is fertile
