Great photos! My colony was doing well with tons of brood and 100+ workers until the queen suddenly died last week  :facepalm:

Not gonna lie, I got worried for a while there. But after months and months, we finally have a new batch of eggs!

Now that they've laid, I am confident about the colony's future to get up to the numbers that they probably should be at by now.

Other than that, still not much to say. Same amount of workers. They still are able to finish a liquid feeder of nectar in just a couple days.

Thanks for checking out my journal!
