Camponotus vicinus 2021 new queen available

[MrPurpleB]

I assume single queens are not guaranteed to be fertile?

[cocdeshijie]

I assume single queens are not guaranteed to be fertile?

for camponotus queens found without wings this time of the year they would be 99% fertile

Thanks! I have been told that wingless doesn't mean fertile, but in it seems in the context of these queens that it's very likely that they are fertile. I am not too familiar with buying single queens, so this is helpful.

(Not sure if you are already aware of this.) On the first pick of the vicinus, the one on the left at the very bottom there is a very dark queen. Are you sure that's vicinus?

Aren't there two different localities or something? Could just be lighting too.

It's either a color varient or other species but I'm leaning towards other species cause the body shape is very different.

I know there is other species in picture but I can recognize where vinitus.
