Also acquired this queen from Sub.  I am not completely certain it is a mimicus after thinking about it for a bit, but it is what Sub and I first thought it was so I am going to go with it until somebody corrects me or I am actually correct.  :P Any who, she does have a small brood that can be seen in a photo.  Again inside of a THA founding thing.

Time for an update on this girl.  She has been doing well from what I have observed.  She has 4 cocoons and one worker; although there were two opened cocoons.  Maybe one was eaten.  Any who, she abandoned a cocoon outside of her chamber as well.  She currently has 3 eggs.  Pictures will be posted later today.
