It's a queen. Semi-claustral. Feed her protein and sugar even before workers.

wow I'm vert happy to heard that, but i have no idea about the setup for semi claustral, i read in this forum almost all test tube for fully claustral, thank you btw for give me advise

Polyrhachis sp.

Semi-claustral setups are exactly the same, except you leave the test tube open in a foraging arena. You'll need to provide insects and sugary liquid throughout the founding stages.

Update, this queen laying an egg, but hard to make her settle in test tube so i just put her in jar with some plant and grass soon she lay egg at the grass
