My colony off lasius niger has lost its queen when it arrived but my myrmica rubras are all alive..
Can anyone if they can send me a queen lasius niger or not ? Just wondering
The lasius niger has 6 ants and queen but its dead could the workers just kill it ?

Sorry to hear that kiam,
You can not put another queen with the workers that are still alive. It dos not work.
Normally the workers don't kill the queen, she probably died from stress are because she wasn't strong enough.

Oh ok do you know anyone that could or would supply me with a new lasius niger queen?

[JimmyVe]

Now, no. Maybe in summer after mating time.
Maybe you can try to catch one yourself.
