Hi
I have  a five week mated queen in a nuc that was queenless for a while.  I believe I had a laying worker in the colony since I was getting multiple eggs in the cells, without a queen. I requeened the nuc expecting the multiple eggs in the cells to stop.

  How can I tell if the queen is the problem now or if laying worker is still laying. 

thanks

6 or more eggs in each cell, laying worker.
2 or 3 eggs in each cell. queen getting started. Give her another week.

Hi,
Its two or three eggs in a cell, on the bottom of the cell and  not the sides.

Thanks

Is the queen still in there? If she is then I doubt it's laying workers.
