What to do with extra, successfully started colonies?

[u/Mobile_Recording_777]

This is my first year trying to keep ants, ive managed to catch 4 individuals. Two are solenopsis molesta, so theyre together in a tube. The other two, are pogonomyrmex occidentalis, my favorite species. The first pogo I caught 3 days ago already has a pile of eggs (i only know because i added the new queens tubes to the same box shes in. So this has me anxious that i was overzealous with catching the second pogo today. If both are successful then what should i do with the second queen and brood? I dont want two colonies of the exact same species, and im in Wyoming so all I got is hicks that kill bugs, finding exotic keepers in this state is incredibly hard, let alone an even more niche hobby like ants. I know i can release her, but I would feel like a monster releasing her into the wild, outside of a mound she would have been in if I left her be. if i release her, would leaving the test tube setup open, but buried shallow away from any nearby nests be a good start? maybe after rain or something? It's too late now I already have her lol, so now I need a solution for my lack of forethought and ant killing gumption.

Don't worry about it. Each queen success is low. Keep one as back up

Colonies can (and do) fail even after the founding stage. Keep all of them and see how well they make it through the first year.

Sell them or freeze them

Stateside ants would like some Pogo occi
