i have a camponotus pudorosus queen with workers and 2 males
i caught a queen with wings, there were some workers and 2 males with her so i caught them all i have them in a plastic container with leaves and a cotton with water today i checked on them and the queen had no wings so i think she is going to lay eggs ¿shall i separate her from the workers and the males or shall i keep them together?

I would separate them and get rid of all but the queen.

the workers seem to feed the queen so i think they are the same colony

if that is the case then I would keep the workers but separate the males from the queen and workers.

actually the workers started to move the leaves and they formed like a little nest and the queen is there with the workers
