a week or two ago a t-storm with heavy rain came over flooded a s. invicta colony and when the rain let up i went out and found a bunch of ants floating in the water found some that were in a "ant ball" there were 2 to 4 "ant balls" some with eggs in them, i grabbed one it had a "future queen" in it, put her in something, checked on her the next morning she had a bunch of white things next to her, found out later in the day that those were eggs
note: there were no eggs with them when i grabbed them....
, also had 3 or 4 other ants with her, 2 this day she's still alive....
gotta remember that for next time....
don't know how 2 change the topic to "got me a queen now!! (hopefully) S. invicta"
