Can male ants lack wings?

Can male ants be wingless?

Head looks really small on my camponotus P's last remaining nanintic. She hasn't laid anymore eggs since her first batch of 4 2 months ago. The worker does not have wings but the head on it is really tiny compared to the new workers that came from a wild colony's brood that I boosted with.

The queen kept her wings and still hasn't removed them and the lack of egg laying makes me think she may be infertile. Her gaster is massive.

I would guess she is infertile, but I don’t know why he has no wings.

Yes, but e the body will be deformed. It could be a wingless gyandromorph
