Isn't it honeybee healthy or something like that? He likes to use it when adding frames of bees and brood to different hives.

I've seen other youtube beekeepers spraying and even 'dousing' their bees in sugar water for this reason.

You don't change the year of the queen even when you know it is being superseded. So the year is when the queen is purposely installed by you and as long as colony maintains size and strength without a new queen being installed by you, the year remains the same to show their continual ability to maintain their nest themselves. Is that your pattern of thinking?

Why wouldn’t you take the old queen and let them go on . Upon merging they push old queen out you will lose a portion of the strength of that hive . I had that this week on a hive I had accidentally blocked entrance of queen cage and they made 6 cells I took small split and took queen in cage away and let her go in my small split . Better to save and watch and maybe give new queen later to replace old queen ..

Crystal Twork No, the old queen will work and carry the colony until the virgin kills her off as a replacement. As I was saying, not all queen cells are swarm cells

Morning In an elongated supersedure cell will the queen be able to access the royal jelly ? What do you look for to manage them if say they were on 5 separate frames ?

The hive that is replacing their gueen, do you mark that replacement on your tag to track the new queen? It seems tricky to keep up with the queen history of so many hives.

I have used your method of boosting a weak hive by using newspaper and a queen excluder . I had the strong hive on the bottom and stacked the weak hive on the top. You idea of letting the stronger hive's bees work their way into the weak hive on top. My question is how long do you keep the weak hive stacked on top before you remove it and place in it's own hive with bottom board?

Checked today and I see a capped queen cell. I think I have a laying worker. I lost my queen from a package so I got a frame of bee with young eggs in it so they could make a queen cell. I did not have any laying queen but three days after putting in the frame of young egg I now have several frame with capped brood and young eggs. Did I have a queen that just did not get started for three weeks or what. So how long before this queen cell will hatch. Will the new queen kill the other queen if I have one or the laying worker. Not sure what to do. Advice please. Thank You, this is Larry
