If research has shown us that a queen will lay a worker egg in a cell
larger than produced in a feral colony and we have a general idea of the
size she will lay in without laying a drone egg.
Question: Has any research been done on how small a cell she will lay in
before she refuses to lay and would the workers produced be indeed smaller?
