probably fire ants. after that maybe tetramorium.
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.

Uh, no he is talking about egg to worker. Not the amount of time it takes for the queen to lay her first eggs.
