Hi all
So I did a bee inspection and noticed that some of the brood cells had the cap off it and a under developed brood bee in there. I can't think of any disease it could be that I studied. Normally when the bee hatches it has already turned from white to dark brown/ black and chews its way out of the capping. These particular brood have no capping on them and the bee although it looks quite developed and I can see all its features. It just doesn't look right. I know it's not AFB, efb, sakbrood, chalkbrood.
Is it normal for the bees to look this way? Do they eventually get there colour and just walk out the cell? Why do the other bees chew there way out. Could it be just bad eggs that never fully get to the final stage?
Thanks
