Great news 👍. Do you mark your queens? Always easier to find them while the colony is still small. I’ve twice had to find and mark a queen in double brood hives this year and it is a pretty daunting task
Thanks David. Yes, if I see a mated queen I use a crown of thorns cage and mark her. I don't have the confidence to pick them up but may try this, also I tend to use thicker gloves as I don't react well to stings! This does limit me somewhat. Look forward to a clip of yours sometime!
Everyday is a school day with the bees. They’ll always keep u guessing👍🏼🐝
