SP <- SimParamBee$new(founderGenomes)

basePop <- createVirginQueens(founderGenomes)
drones <- createDrones(x = basePop[1], nInd = 15)

# Create an empty Colony class
colony <- createColony()

# Create Colony class with one or multiple virgin queens
colony1 <- createColony(x = basePop[2])
colony1
colony2 <- createColony(x = basePop[3:4])
colony2

# Create a mated Colony
