Queens in the incubator

From my hive that has swarmed twice, I decided to split it in two, I left one queen cell in each half and removed the rest. These I placed in jam jars in the incubator with 2 young worker bees each. I'm going to use them in apideas and see can I then use them for small nucs.

The video shows a queen bee hatching from her cell.
