Turns out, this queen was a Camponotus decipiens. I did catch two other ACTUAL Solenopsis invicta queens and one of them has already laid at least eight eggs. I got to witness one of them and it was magnificent. I hope the nanitics come soon.

Found this in central Texas at around 13:30. This queen is about 9-12mm.

I hope you find a solution. Nuptial flights for many ants are coming, so just be patient. You'll find a way!

Found her in Central Texas. It’s 9-10mm. Head and mesosoma are dark red, gaster is black.

Sorry if I'm being picky lol. Could you get a side view?

Access denied. I sent an access request.

It's size is 11mm if that helps.

Camponotus discolor! An amazing and gorgeous starter species

I don't think it's Camponotus. It's Petiole is a different shape, and it's eyes are small. I may be wrong. I'm new anyways.

This is it.

Okay. Do you want an image? I got it on Imgur so I'd also like you to identify it if possible.
