My first queen has her nantics!

I caught my first queen on May 10 and she finally has her nantics. She is a Solenopsis Invicta queen and I am genuinely very excited for her, and I also can't believe I made it this far, haha! She has 4 and the 5th will hatch from the pupa probably in the next day or so. I have another queen (Pheidole) and she currently has a few larvae but mostly eggs. I have caught other queens, but most of them weren't fertile and died. A am hoping that my Solenopsis queen will do very well with her colony, she seems like a great mother! :mrgreen:
