An ant's life begins as an egg. Eggs are laid by queen ants. Ant eggs are small, soft, oval shaped-white, and transparent in color. Only a few make it to maturity since the eggs are also targeted by predators.

After 7-10 days, the ant larva will emerge. The ant larva has no eyes or legs. Larvae are heavy eaters and rely on adult ants to provide them with food.

When the larva is large enough, it metamorphoses into a pupa. In the pupa stage, it spins a silky cocoon around its body for protection before finally emerging as an adult. This stage is referred to as the resting stage because they are mostly resting and their legs are tucked into their body.

After about 6-10 weeks, the pupa emerges from its cocoon and transitions into an adult. Adults could be male or female.
