Eggs - Camponotus pennsylvanicus - Female
Perry County, Pennsylvania, USA
Size: 1 - 1.5 mm
This is what Camponotus eggs look like. They are small, between 1 and 1.5 mm. They are somewhat amber colored. The queen lays them singly but the workers are sure to collect them and keep them together in batches as seen here
