Awesome! Thanks for sharing, That is a pretty little thing isn't she! I think this is my favorite part of keeping bees, the new queens and watching them get started and take off!
Hey Robert thanks for watching. This one did not have laying workers although i have seen that a few times. I’m guessing what you saw was the nectar in the cells throwing off a reflection that looked like multiple eggs in a cell. I have also seen where a new queen might lay 2 eggs in one cell. The only other time I’ve seen it was when I introduced a queen in a push in cage. A couple of them laid multiple eggs in each cell.

Wow! Pretty fast!
Yes I was very surprised
you have a laying worker with multiple eggs per cell.
