I am already seeing capped drone brood. Can I start rearing queens when I see hatched drones or will they kick them out till warmer weather?

Dr. Larry Connors told me that I should start grafting queens when drone pupae reached the purple eye stage. But I don't know if February in Texas is what he had in mind.I am already seeing capped drone brood.

Better half loaded then shooting blanks!that .5 Drone was just half loaded :scratch:
Only two inches? I heard it was a foot.Thanks for all the info y'all have shared. Looks like I won't be starting to rear queens early next week because we have had 2 inches of snow.That is Texas for you.
