Hi Queen folks,

The nurse bees fill the queen cell with a large amount of royal jelly before capping. I have been wondering, how long after capping is it before the larvae uncurls to form a straight worm?? Or has the worm already straightened out before capping??

When it straightens, how does the larvae eat the royal jelly???? Is it’s mouth at the bottom of the cell?? 

Should I just keep my wondering to myself?

Lionel
