I am a starter, I wonder if

Someone can let me know if this is a queen, or not
Or do we know the species. And if it is mated.

I’m still new at this, but to me, it looks like a Camponotus worker. I could be wrong though

Update: I can see that one of the queens has a few eggs in the tube but now it looks like there is mold growing. Of course this would only happen to the species I want to keep the most :x
