USUALLY...I say USUALLY...

A two queen colony consists of mother and daughter, and the mother is
being superceded but hasn't gotten the boot yet.

A managed two queen colony is USUALLY something different. The queens
are segregated, and the colony is more like a "two colony hive" instead
of a "two queen colony."
