A couple weeks ago I made a mistake and am regretting it.  I was going thru nucs and found one that had requeened itself.  This new queen was a geniune runt.  perfectly formed  but smaller than a regular worker.  unfortunatly I pinched her super quick.   In hindsight I wish I had let it play out.   

Anyone else ever had a real midget queen that they let play out??
