Camponotus discolor typically grows a bit faster than regular Camponotus(Or so I have heard)

Keep them warm, and they will grow fast. And I see your from South Carolina. I was down there like two years ago and seen what I believed to be this species everywhere. I accidentally came upon their nuptial flights.
