We have here a wormy weather for almost a week(36 celcius).
I have one hive that i split and wait the girls to raise a new queen for 29 days allready. every week i put one frame of brood with eggs, so the girls will raise new queen.
Last week was the first time i didn't see any queen cells, so i thought i have a virgin queen inside the hive
I did my weekly insoection today, hopping to see some eggs from a new queen
that the bees raised. no eggs, no queen cells and no laying worker. I put another brood frame with eggs from another hive.
Maybe i have a failed virgin queen inside? what i need to do from now on?
Thanks
