Can I move a queen cell to a queenless hive?

[sloydall]

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

Your test frames seem to have indicated the presence of a queen...

Of course you could move it. But it will likely be pulled down.

Your adding eggs twice, without queen cells being drawn, is not indicating Q-. And, no, those results do not necessarily indicate the presence of a queen.

Read up on test frames.

But not neccessarily. The only positive result you can claim from a test frame is if QC's are drawn
