[QUOTE="Maggie, post: 12039, member: 71"] I am not a scientist, just a beekeeper that has produced some queen cells and used some caged queens. Sometimes the queen doesn't always eat all the caged candy. But then again I could have this all wrong, that it's going to be administered through queen candy. Or are they going to somehow feed the candy to the queen before caging? As you note the queen is producing the offspring, therefore why do researchers appear to have gone for vaccine in queen candy? Generally, anyone that produces quality cells knows a little bit about sucrose and JH levels, Day 3 and caste differentiation. I'm also curious as to the effects on immune systems with vaccine controls. [/QUOTE]
