worker, cells with eggs, and a few capped worker cells

(click on the photo for a closer view)

















this is the same section of comb after it was removed

a total of six shallow frames of eggs and capped brood were removed from this colony and placed into frames



























a section of comb that is still attached to the rest of the colony

from left to right:
new, empty comb
capped worker cells
older worker cells that have already hatched out - now containing new eggs


















this is how the frame looks full of comb

the bees will draw out comb to fill in the gaps
