I caught 4 queens of Pachycondyla Harpax I've had them for almost a week now and they have laid no eggs yet but I'm 80% certain they are queens as I believe i see wingscars, so far 2 have died and I wanted a care guide on them as I heard the genus can be quite difficult any help is appreciated?

What kind of setup are they in? These are semiclaustral, so they should have a bit of substrate in the tube and be fed consistently during founding.
