founderGenomes <- quickHaplo(nInd = 8, nChr = 1, segSites = 100)
SP <- SimParamBee$new(founderGenomes)
basePop <- createVirginQueens(founderGenomes)

drones <- createDrones(x = basePop[1], nInd = 1000)
droneGroups <- pullDroneGroupsFromDCA(drones, n = 10, nDrones = nFathersPoisson)

# Create a Colony and a MultiColony class
colony <- createColony(x = basePop[2])
colony <- cross(colony, drones = droneGroups[[1]])
apiary <- createMultiColony(basePop[3:4], n = 2)
