I was recently given a trap jaw colony without a queen but i have a queen i found, can i introduce the queen to the colony and have them take it in and treat it as their own? The type of trap jaw is Odontomachus brunneus i cant find much research on the ants so i dont know if they tolerate more then one queen but if they happened to not would they take the queen in.
