If the egg started to mold, yes. If there are any other reasons I don't know them.
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.

Sometimes it looks like trash but is a good particle the larvae is eating.
