For those that might never had to deal with laying worker(s) this is what it looks like.



This comb was not fully drawn so the eggs were deposited on the cell floor. Other times you can see the eggs attached to the cell walls.

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Theodore Roosevelt 1907

Hey, Scott, great picture!  Would you mind if I copied it to show to my mentoree?  The one I took of my hive a few years back is not nearly that large or clear.

Alicia (and others) feel free to use anything I post if it is of use to you.

This was from a nuc and the colony was just shaken out. There is always a certain % of queens that don't mate well or don't return from mating. We try to keep on top of it but there are inevitably some that slip through the cracks.

Yep, I had the same thing a few years ago. Not a happy sight. I tried to save mine, but it never worked out and I ended up shaking them on the ground.
