Transporting queen cells

[Jon]

I often move queen cells about on my bicycle!
Last year I attended a 2 hour allotment meeting in between leaving the association apiary and arriving home.
I had 3 cells in my pocket and all of the queens emerged fine and dandy the next day.
They really are quite hardy coming up to emergence date.

In my usual cackhanded manner I dropped two before adding them to mini-nucs a week ago ... one from about 5' or so (don't ask). They emerged just fine.
