John,

Perhaps this would have been better placed as a thread in the queen rearing section? I would suggest its getting late in the season to rear queens, although not impossible IMO. I am sure others would disagree, however, that said we have run such courses throughout the year.
Try reading Vince Cook's - Queen rearing simplified book its not too complicated and will give you some idea.

why not get an apidea and give it as go. presume you have a hive that can afford to loose a bit of brood and a couple of cups of bees?
