Some have regressed bees. When a new queen is raised, is that queen also regressed? Tiny? Would she fit through a queen excluder? If so, do they build queen excluders for teeny tiny queens? Have a great day, great life, great health.
But how would she get her big queen sized bottom into a small cell? Where is Michael Bush when you need him....
The pupae regardless of worker, drone, or queen is always positioned head up within the cell in order to eat their way to freedom, so it is her tiny pointed little derriere that sits at the bottom of the cell and will fit nicely into small cell. Even after she's mated with an enlarged abdomen she can still slip her little hinny into those small cells.Heads up, tooshie down, that's the way they all set. So do I for that matter, I'm to stove up to get my keister higher than my thinkbox, although my wife keeps insisting I set on my brain all the time. She claims a swift kick in the pants is the most direct root to my brain.
