Does anyone know of any site that sells taxidermy queen ants? I can only seem to find gigas which will always be a dream species. Does such a website exist?

I'd like to make a wall with a queen from each of the species I've kept but struggling to find anyone and I currently lack the skills and dead queens!

Yeah unfortunately ants aren’t very popular in the insect collecting hobby. I’d highly recommend collecting your own specimens, either alates from nests or queens you caught that died while founding.

I think I've only ever seen Atta queens sold as pinned/prepared specimens, probably since they are large and impressive looking
