So I found a few small ant queens a while ago, and I just wanted to know what species it was.

As you can see, they are small, One of them has already laid eggs (Yay!) Hopefully you can figure out species they are.

Tetramorium Caespitum. Congrats! They are great colonies. I have on with 700-1000 workers!
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.

Keeping Tetramorium immigrans, Tapinoma Sessile
