I will have too many queen cells for the number of nucs I will be making (by design). Will putting 2 cells per nuc be a problem? I see the first queen out eliminating the other, but don't see that as a problem. Survival of the fittest. Just curious to see if anybody else has done this. Always learning. Tks.

No. I often do this if I don't have enough nucs for them all or a use for them. It is better insurance in case one doesn't emerge. I wouldn't do it unless I just had them left over, though.
Good problem to have!
I use a light and check my cells and make sure there is a live queen in them before I place them into a nuc. With practice, it only takes a couple seconds. Then I double up the extras.
Too many is a good problem to have.
