I was poking around the ants’ nest to see what would happen. black ant going inside nest

And when I dug further and further, I came to the chamber where the ants stored their eggs. And to my surprise the ants started to carry their eggs to a safer place either walking on four legs and carrying their egg on their shoulders OR dragging the egg with their jaws.
