What should i do with the brood

[m0llym0nster]

I have a batch of brood some eggs some larva and even a pupai there is the first worker in the container as well but my queen is dieing should i try to move the eggs to one of my other queens and what do i do with the worker can i place her in with another queen

No, wait until this one dies. It's unlikely the brood will be accepted.

Awww so i have to let the babys die as well :c

How long can they survive without the queen and i beleive these queens are a fire ant species and i known they will do brood raiding partys in the wild i dont see why they wouldnt accept the new queen or visa verca this is my first time so all information is helpfull

To be sure, post pictures You could very well try introducing the brood though I am unsure if it will be accepted.

That is a RIFA queen, I believe. You could try introducing the brood on a clean q-tip or cotton swab. The queen might be a bit frightened at first but probably will take the brood. It might get eaten, though.

Is rifa a type of fire ant ? And yeah im going to try even if she eats them at least her and her brood will be better off

RIFA is the Red Imported Fire Ant, Solenopsis invicta.
