So I have a two single queens. 1 mimicus and on Yuma. Is it possible to brood boost them with some mexicanus pupae? I have a small colony that I could steal 2 cocoon from. I was gonna give each queen one pupae. The mexicanus only have 6 brood in total which is 2 cocoons and 4 larave. Will it work and is it worth it? If it won’t I can try to buy some brood from somebody to boost. Thanks!
