OMG I'm so excited about spring being here, however it has been raining for like the past couple weeks here in Abilene Texas and barely any sun and lots of wind. I already have a Queen Camponotus that has laid 12 eggs so far. I only have these pics.
My 1st pic taken of her some time in early March
Image
Here you see she still has her wings, taken 4/15/16 and she has 7 eggs.
Image
As of today she still has her wings and she now has 12 eggs. The last 3 pics were all taken the same day and time. 2nd pic was with flash and she didn't like it lol
Image
Here she turned just right so we could see the all of the eggs. The 5 at her head and 2 behind by her gaster
Image
I can't wait till the 1st worker. I'm thinking about getting the Omni nest for her. Haven't decided yet.
