Sometimes maybe 1/2 the time with laying workers the queen starts laying at the same time as the workers. You gotta look closely. No need to walk away with them shake right in front of the queen right colonies or use newspaper to combine them. If it’s a drone laying queen you always want to kill her. I believe people have a difficult time fixing this issue because they don’t actually know what is happening. When the queen is laying beside the workers it takes a couple weeks for it to straighten itself out anyway, they are setback. I think it’s funny how people make such a big deal of this or have crazy ideas about it.

Yeah that’s the easiest way to fix that problem IMO.
