Beekeeping can be frustrating when it comes to keeping a strong and good laying queen in your hive. Today, we'll take a look and see if we have a virgin queen or a mated queen.

Just wondering why you don't remove queen caps... Doesn’t it take you a tiny bit more time and attention when you see those on frames during subsequent inspections? I just remove all the queen caps/cells at the time since I don't need another queen.
@beek
@beek 3 месяца назад
I could but most colonies have queen cups just in case, they need to replace a queen, so I just leave them.

@@beek Thankfully you're not in an area where nearly all the feral bees have Africanized genetics. Here we avoid making queens unless there's an emergency and we *have* to, since available local drones yield defensive progeny.

We just inspected a split today and found the new queen! There were no eggs or larvae yet, so I wasn't sure if she was mated or not yet, but I was so relieved to see her and know that the split worked!

David we are first year Bee keepers we installed a package 4/25. Long story short the original queen left. The hive raised a new queen. We saw her on 5/15. Being a young package I was happy to see you checked on day 8. Tomorrow is day 8 and it appears it is not too early at least to observe the hive and Queen. We will check tomorrow and hope our Queen looks half as good as yours.

Do you worry about doing a split and the hive having too many empty frames or do you checker board the frames? I noticed the drawn frames were only on one side. Do you worry about it being too big of a space I guess is what I'm asking.
