The best way I have found to introdue a new mated Queen is simply
Hang the Queen cage between the middle two frames for around 48 hours
and then to remove the tab so the worker bees can eat there way in to release the queen.
The most important thing is to stay away from the hive for at least 7 to 8 days so the Queen can settle down in to a laying routine.
All Queens mated and virgins are posted to all parts of the UK via Royal Mail you can select First Class or Special delivery
First class post can take up to 3 days.
Special Delivery Is next day before 1pm.
Orders placed before 12:30 pm Will be posted the same day.
The Queens are posted In Induction cages with around 7 attendat bees and quenn candy.
I use two different styles of cages JzBz cages and the yellow Nicot cage
