Title: Queen cells G-O-N-E!
Post by: debay on July 10, 2008, 07:00:25 PM
I had 4-5 capped queen cells. I just opened up the box and now I have smooth indentions where the cells used to be. No one I have spoken with so far has seen this. Any clues?

One hatched, the others were killed and then cleaned up.

No cups either?  I usually see the cups at least.

Mine did the same thing......gone, gone and GONE.

Saw the queen so all is well.

I have one new cup that wasnt there before. Everywhere else looks like the bees formed the comb to go around an obstacle. I thought maybe someone had robbed me at first. I will give them another week and see what happens.
