I have found that queen cells like that are viable. So long as I don't break them open when I break much of the comb off them before installation.

Nick, watch this video from Kamon Reynolds that addresses your question visually.

Thanks for the comments and thanks for the video! They turned out to be all duds..I think when I had them in the cell builder the temperature dropped and I didn’t think the weather would change so fast! Always next time.. love and learn!
Burr on the cells doesn't mean they are or are not viable.
