Not other formica species queens, just another Formica cinerea colony.
But I'm keeping Lasius Niger queens, and soon myrmica queens

ok. cool. well my question is. what was your care for her before eggs? i have mine set up just like all my solenopsis, monomorium, and componotus sp.
every one has laid eggs, or has pupa except my formica queens. im wondering if they just take a lil longer, or maybe im doing something wrong. any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Hi mate sorry for late reply,
Just a regular test tube setup, a drop of honey and kept her in the dark undisturbed looked her every 2 weeks or so.
