Hi.
How long does it take for worker bees to start laying if a colony has no Queen.
My bees swarmed before June 11 and there is no sign of any eggs, larva or sealed brood.
I gave them a test frame from another hive and was wondering if the presence of eggs and brood stops workers from laying.
Or will they start soon as it's a month since they were Queen right.
Regards G.
