Last batch of eggs?

My Formica colony has reached around 25ish workers since I got them this season and I haven't noticed any new eggs. There are 6 pupae left from one of the first few batches of eggs but no more eggs. It is September here in Indiana. I have never raised a colony so I'm assuming that these colder months are when they stop laying.

They are preparing for hibernation.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.
