Many apologies if this is already answered somewhere on the Forum.
I did a Demaree on 5 April. I had checked the upper brood box twice before today (on 9 and 12 April) removing (I thought) all the queen cells (3-4 charged but not sealed each time). But today there were three sealed queen cells which I removed. The old queen is happily laying away in the bottom box where there is lots of space. She is last year’s queen so still young. Is there anything I should do, should I be worried?
Many thanks
Alison
