Update, Monday, October 28, 2019
After getting rid of most of these guys, the only colony I had left decided to have a massive die off right before the season ended. They lost 75% of their workers, so I had to move them back to a test tube (They were in an Aus Ants Ytong Nest). 
Here's a video I took of them after the die off:

Update, Sunday, March 8, 2020
Took these guys out of hibernation a few weeks ago. No eggs yet; unfortunately it's still too cold outside. Hopefully they have a productive season. The colony looks to have recovered from the massive die off they had at the end of last season.

Update?
Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies.
However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:
Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).

Please stop treating this forum like a discord server.cool colony. i'm hoping my formica will grow as big as your colony is. Formica are one of my favorte spieces.
