Differences in queen egg laying across five-day sequential periods in Experiment 1a. The X-axis represents five sequential, five-day periods in the experiment. The Y-axis shows the number of new egg cups observed in nests during each period. Box plots display median values (horizontal lines), interquartile ranges (boxes), and data variability (whiskers). Central dots represent means, and error bars indicate standard errors. Different letters above box plots denote statistically significant differences between periods based on an emmeans post-hoc pairwise test (p < 0.05)
