This was one of my favourite journals. I really hope you can find another queen.

Plenty of people selling some of these queens here recently.

Our species have green workers though - green gaster cream coloured top

 

They tend to kill their queens though. No one I know has managed to get a colony past 100 workers

could putting multiple queens together work? I know this species can sometimes be polygynous.

Not long term. They are not polygynous, but they will be pleomatrotic at times.
