Summary is about 1 in 10,000 workers is an egg layer in 
pretty much any hive, even yours. Bees who find these eggs
decide to keep them  or eat them based on various pheremon
levels."

This is not new information of 1 in 10,000 workers being an
egg layer and in fact a normal egg layer. Archives dating
back to pre-1900 go into this laying pattern and names that
come to mind are Mackenson, Roberts, Woyke, to name a few.

What is new reading for me if more on pheremon levels.
