I have a queenless colony as a sealed cell left on has not produced a queen. I had removed the queen to a nuc as part of swarm prevention.
The colony swarmed anyway (!) and I broke down the swarm cells leaving one sealed cell on 28th May. I will recheck in a few days to see if there’s any change.
My best plan is to combine the old queen back. What’s the best way to combine a six frame nuc back to full hive? The hive is double brood with three supers.
TIA
