I have the offer to graft from an association member's queen who lives about a 20 minute drive from me.
I have a cell raiser set up already at my home apiary and I have 12 mininucs filled with bees there.
My question is this - is there any way I can graft from this queen and then immediately transport the young larvae (in Jenter queen cells on two Jenter bars with room each for 10 cells) to my apiary? The problem is my cell raiser is here and the queen is there. In an ideal world I'd have the larvae raised there and then transport the sealed cells to my apiary. Even then would I need something like a Carricell or would they be fine kept warmish by a passenger in the car?
