Re: Where can I buy a queen on its own
As a general rule you do not buy queens on their own, you either find them (since that costs you much less) or buy a colony with a few or many, many workers because if it is just a queen there is a chance she is infertile, and workers are one of the only ways to tell without specialized equipment. Also see AntsCanada's GAN project to see if you can buy a colony in your area.

Proverbs 6:6-8
Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.
