So I'm a day and a half into introducing my queen. I checked today to see if she was released and she was not.
I have a question on their behavior and acceptance. Is it common to see bees all over the screen of the cage? They weren't balling the cage, but there were enough bees on the screen so that I couldn't see into the cage (probably 10-15 bees).
The reason I ask is that whenever I see a queen on a frame, she is never covered in bees.
