Hi

Does anyone have any information on the length of time a mated queen can
survive in a traveling cage? I am assuming that she will have adequate
companions (6-10 say) with ample fondant or similar at a temperature in the
range 50-80F.  Would access to water make any difference to her lifetime?

Thanks in advance for any info.

Regards
