If you have queen issues, call the NCBA package coordinator as soon as possible at 970-690-4213. You must return to the pick up location to retrieve your replacement. Escaped queens during installation due not qualify for queen replacement within the 24 hour window. If we have queens after 48 hours, you may be able to obtain one, there is no guarantee.
