Bear got my hives earlier this year. Installed two new packages a little over a week ago. These are my only hives now. I ordered three queens earlier this year before the bear came because I anticipated splitting my overwintered hives, which are now dead. For plan B, I want to use the three queens to split the packages but in case they dont build up enough is there an easy way to store the queens for two or three weeks to allow the package hives to build up sufficiently to split? I read you can put the cages in a honey super above an excluder somehow. What the best way to store them?
