Science - Zoology
French term or phrase: couvain refroidi
Un exemple serait le "couvain refroidi", conséquence d’une division de colonie avec trop peu d’abeilles adultes pour maintenir le nid à couvain à bonne température.

Has anyone seen a technical term for this?
Cooled brood has very few hits...

Thanks!

agree  Nikki Scott-Despaigne: "chilled" rather than "cold" which does not convey the idea of the brood once having been anything else.
