Sold a Queen today, Placed her in cage; 90 degrees outside; place 4 attendants; Did not injure at all; Took In 78 degree house; Died In 10 minutes. What happened? Sold many queens. Almost like shock. Any ideas?

Did she really die or faint ? There are reports of queens fainting (especially when marking) and coming back to life. I had a queen die, but right after marking her. She fainted, I set back into the Nuc and next day found dead on the floor of the nuc.

Sorry couldn't be of more help.
