I see you put it in the post, but to abide by forum rules your location has to be in your profile when participating in buying or selling.

As far as I know, there is only 1 small population of Atta mexicana in the US/Arizona and I'm only aware of a single US-based hobbyist successfully obtaining them (Cheeto). I very much doubt you will be able to find a supplier

 

That said, Acromyrmex versicolor (an other native leafcutter) should currently be quite available in your local ant-hobbyist circles

There's 2 others that have obtained them besides cheeto.
