I had a call today from a beekeeper asking whether I had a spare queen. It appears that he was a member of a beekeeping club who had told him to remove queencells if he found any. From a very vague conversation, it appears that he removed 3 queencells 2- 1/2 months ago and then found the dead marked queen outside around that time and has done nothing since apart from regularly checking to see if there was a queen in there...

May your bees read the same books as you do.
