Follow up from Queen Rearing Session on 15th May

The photo below shows the results from our Miller frame. I am going to tear down the emergency cells and leave the cell that is too long and one good cell and use the remaining cells in mini Nucs.

It also looks like some of the grafts have taken, I will post a photo of these in the next day or so.

Considering the cold and wet weather over the last fortnight I am pleased with the results so early in the season.

Are there twin queen bees in that cell? It’s like something from outer space! Why so big?
