Hi All
I’m new at bee keeping this will be my second summer
Last year I got two nuc’s that I move to a 10 frame brood box then added a second 10 frame through out the summer they wintered with two 10 frame boxes and a full Super of honey they both made it through the winter and bursting with bees and were using the super as a brood box
I found the queen and moved her to the bottom box and installed a queen excluder in between the super and the brood boxes
Today I found a single queen cell and a bunch of queen cups on one of the hives with nothing in them
I’m not sure of what to do with this cell
I’d like to keep it but I cannot cut it out it’s on a plastic foundation
Thank you all
Marjo
