Update on both hives
Hive 1
it is now 10 days since i left a queen in an introduction cage in this hive.
opened up today and she is not in the cage at least, but i cannot find her.
had a good look for eggs or larvae and cannot see any.
is it a bit early yet? any thoughts?
Hive 2
again, 10 days ago noticed that the emergency q cell was open, so left alone untill today. opened up and have seen the queen, no eggs no larvae, but perhaps she isn't mated yet. again any thoughts?
