Drone laying worker bees make queen cells?

[Etton]

Do drone laying workers in a Q- hive ever create Q cells?

 

[Hivemaker.]

Yes.

 

[beeno]

Yes, but they are no good. Only workers of Apis mellifera capensis, the Cape honey bee, can make a queen bee, but they don't need a queen to make workers.

 

[Finman]

Do drone laying workers in a Q- hive ever create Q cells?

Yes they do often, but they have drone larva in the cell.

 

[Michael Palmer]

Yes, and usually with multiple eggs.
