Hi all,
A hive with a clipped queen has likely tried to swarm, returning minus the queen. Couldn't find her outside the hive.
I have left only one queen cell by pulling down all the others a week after noticing she had gone. If there is only one QC will the bees attempt another swarm with the virgin or not?
