So this happened this week:

I think it is Lasius Neoniger. The queens seem to be digging together. Is that common? That can't end well.

Here's a queen removing her wings:

And more queens digging:

Well it can happen. Maybe they all liked the same spot for some reason.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.

Need help or want to help? https://forum.AntsCanada.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=18153#p70566

Currently not keeping any ants anymore.
