>They leave their nests as soon as they grow wings
>When they meet a female they become pardners and start a new colony
>During this time the king spends most of his time expanding the nest and mating with the Queen
>once the Queen starts lying eggs the king Will start talking care of the young
>Once the young are grown up he starts commanding them alongside the Queen
>During all of this the king still has to mate with the queen everyday
>They do this for around 15 years if they don't get killed by a Predator or dissease
