I cannot upload any pictures for some reason, so please bear with me! The queen, Amelia, has a large selection of eggs, larvae, and pupae right now. Hopefully they will hatch soon...

Proverbs 6:6-8 New International Version (NIV)

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

Her first worker hatched- it is so small and pale! Its exoskeleton is still soft so I will have to wait. She still has a good pile of eggs and larvae and a massive cluster of pupae.

Caught another queen. I'll probably use one colony for a Lasius parasite colony once they get a lot of brood, but so far all good. Amelia's little nanitics go balistic over honey, and look very much like little crazy ants because of their movement.
