I recently watched a you tube video....... yeah yeah I know half of them are pants lol
But the guy seemed convinced that after the queen was put in the laying cage and he had found eggs in the cups that they were vanishing or as he though being moved by the workers.
Now I know this is an area for debate all by its self however the comb that had been drawn on either side of the cage was full of eggs a few with multiple eggs though so my thought is that it may have had a laying worker or possibly a young queen running around .
I have a cheep knock off version of the system and was debating giving it a go.
Would you suggest using the system or just direct grafting into the cups?
Has anyone else found problems with the Nicot set up ?
