Introduce mated queen

If a virgin queen mating fails, or if a colony is queenless and lacks resources to raise a new queen, introducing a purchased, mated queen is a prompt solution to restore queenrightness. Mated queens are readily available from queen breeders. Introducing a mated queen bypasses the risks of virgin queen mating failure and quickly re-establishes a laying queen in the colony. This is particularly important for time-sensitive situations, such as late-season queenlessness or when a colony needs to be productive quickly. While involving queen purchase cost, introducing a mated queen is a reliable solution for mating failure.
