Hi Rodney & All,

Can't ask for any Better Queens than that from a swarm cell except maybe
that from a supersedure cell. Queens from swarm & supersedure cells are
reared from the egg and fed specially by the bees to produce premium queens.
You did good by the bees using swarm cells from the best colony you keep.
