Hey guys, I'm not 100% sure if these are Camponotus or not, but I believe they have their first eggs! So I guess I really do need to know what they are now. Found in flagstaff this week. Today is the first rain we've gotten in probably 5 months. So I'll be back out looking soon. Thanks ahead of time for your help.
Edit: Telling me I've hit the attachment quota? Not really sure so I'll provide a screen cap of my image from Gyazo.

Re: Flagstaff Arizona Queens
That queen ant is actually a tetramorium immigran or aka a pavement ant. I have just recently found TONS of them because now is a popular time for them to fly, they are a good species to keep because they grow very fast unlike Camponotus.
Camponotus subbarbatus x3
Temnothorax curvispinosus x1
Aphenogaster fulva x1
Camponotus sp.
Termite pair

Wow! Thank you so much for the info. The only time I seen a similar color was camponotus. The more you know. Yeah I've seen probably next to 30 by now. I'm hoping after our recent rain I can find a different family of ant queen.
