This is the pattern you get with a drone laying queen. There is a single egg in each cell.

This is what you hope to see - a normal egg laying pattern.

This is what you end up with when you start a queen rearing group.

The season starts by making sure everything is free of nosema spores by treating with 80% Acetic acid for a week.
