I want to make a couple of 5 frame nucs. I have two new queens in cages. I will be taking frames of brood - both capped and at least one with eggs and larva as well as one of honey and one frame of foundation.
What is the best way to introduce and release the new queens?
I was planning to keep her caged within the new nucs for a couple of days before removing the cork and letting the bees release her.
Any other ideas.
Thanks
