I know that antopia does, but it would probably be cheeper to find a seller here.

I keep: pogonomyrmex rugosus | myrmecocystus depilis | monomorium ergatogyna | Camponotus CA-02 | Pheidole Bicarinata

And many Carnivorous plants such as: Dionea muscipula (fly trap), Sarracenia x 'Fiona' ( American Pitcher plant), Nepenthese ventrata (Tropical Pitcher plant), and Pinguicula agnata x emarginata (Butterwort) (show off your plants here)

Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores it's provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. Proverbs 6: 6-8

Single queens or whole colonies? The problem is that they're currently not in season. Vendors often catch hundreds of queens during their flights in March and April, but they're typically either out of stock or more expensive around now. Not to mention that any single queens by now would be almost guaranteed to be either infertile or neglected. If I were you I'd either look for a couple founding colonies or wait until next spring, where they'll be much cheaper and more common throughout the market.
