No doubt, not flighty and wide hips of a virgin.... I cage well over 100 queens a week on average, so I see a lot, and know how they develop. This was a midget. For the record the parent queen was from a GA suppliers whos Itilians are already on the small side.
She was perfectly formed, and proportioned as a laying queen but tiny! Sure as heck wish I had left her alone just for curiosity!

Do you think the queen had mated yet, Charles?
