Hi all,
I've never come that far yet to see any queen cells, they are still new to me,
at least from my own hives, don't forget that I started my beekeeping last year
when some of you guys had harvesting going on. This coming year however
should indeed give me answers to this and other questions.
But, if my leg was pulled, then this also occurred with a bunch of other beekeepers,
since all present at the time seemed to agree, or at least did not go against it.
I will follow this on!
