I've caught 3 queen ants that I think are Solenopsis, but many people are saying that they are Pheidole. What do you guys think?
I say Pheidole.
I accidentally froze all my ants
The mandibles definitely look more like Pheidole.

Yeah, I've decided that they are pheidole, but I think that their exact species may be:
Pheidole Californicus
or Pheidole Xerophila
What do you say?

Proverbs 6:6-8 New International Version (NIV)
6 Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
7 It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
8 yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.
Photographs are better for identification, since a 1080p video produces a measly 2.1 megapixel image.
If you've enjoyed using my expertise and identifications, please do not create undue ecological risk by releasing your ants. The environment which we keep our pet insects is alien and oftentimes unsanitary, so ensure that wild populations stay safe by giving your ants the best care you can manage for the rest of their lives, as we must do with any other pet.
Exotic ants are for those who think that vibrant diversity is something you need to pay money to see. It is illegal to transport live ants across state lines.
