Species identification
Hello,
I just caught a queen ant this afternoon, I was wondering what species is it. The queen's color is red, black, and brown. Thank you for any help!

Nope, it is not that bright and not that large. By the way, I think she layed eggs.

Re: Species identification
Size: Around 3 mm
When: 10/1 around three o'clock in the afternoon.
Where: In my back yard ( on the pavement )
Appearance: reddish body with blackish gaster
Behavior: I gave her some honey and she drank it. She likes to sleep on the cotton ball blocking the water.
( I don't know how to upload a picture. And the video on how to post pictures says its private. So, I can't watch it.)

Re: Species identification
I have been keeping ants since July 2023, I found Queenie (kids named her) in New York. I'm assuming she hibernates since she was found in New York I just don't know what species they are. Currently, I have about 20 workers and a lot of brood. Since winter is approaching, I am curious to know what species I have been keeping.

Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.
