Field Bee
I had a quick look at the swarm I caught on 13th June today and there were a few frames of capped brood (very exciting).
I didn’t see the queen. Based on the above timescale is it probable that the swarm already had a mated queen or has there been plenty of time for a virgin to get mated and progress to having capped brood at this stage?
