Can an evolutionary minded beekeeper explain why a queenless hive makes
laying workers who in turn produce drones? It would seem that these drones
came from failed genetics, the hive died, so why would nature chance
spreading these genes rather than creating none at all? Unless, having lived
and failed is considered genetically better than not having lived at all.
Wondering.
