My... I've only seen an actual queen ant atleast once in the summertime. Then again, I've lived on the East Coast for a while.

@tekubus What you are describing is a mature termite queen, they are literally stationary blobs full of eggs. Ant queens are very different, while they do have egg laying cycles where their gasters become fecund with eggs and bloated they are still very mobile.

@tekubus Or you could be describing the queen ant that was pictured in Phase 4 the movie. The queen in that movie was actually the head of a wasp with the body of a termite queen.
