๐Ÿ How a Hive Raises a New Queen โ€” Part 2
Royal Jelly & Queen Cells

The workers then build special queen cells, larger and shaped differently than regular brood cells, giving the future queen space to fully develop.
Same genetics.
Different care.
Different purpose.
Itโ€™s a beautiful reminder that nourishment, environment, and timing matterโ€”by design.
๐Ÿ‘‰ Next: what happens when the new queen emerges.
