Morning.
I have a queenless hive and I have twice given the bees eggs and they have not drawn any queen cells out. I think I can safely say it is a queenless hive as the queen is in the other hive (an error in an artificial swarm where i moved the queen and the queen cell) as I've spotted her 3 times in there and there are no eggs in the queen less hive. So...In my queened hive there is a drawn out queen cell and I think I've got about 2 days before it will be closed. Could I move this queen cell to the queenless hive or should I try with the eggs again?
Thanks
