Shaking brood probably can cause damage without question.

I have often wondered how capped brood feed. As I understand,

and I believe it is true, larva is growing with it's head toward the cell's 
cap.

Is the queen also in the same position? Head to the capped end of the cell?

My question,,,,,,How do the larva eat during the capped time?????? Several

days are spent capped.....

Where is the food--royal jelly---or whatever????
