Some Post-Swarm Hive Inspections

I observed a few of my colonies swarming this spring. Join me as we inspect them a few weeks later to check for queen rightness.

Definitely not the only one, we needed to find and mark three last week and went 1 for 3! Thanks for the videos!

I had to check 3 times before I found the queen in a new hive.so sometimes it takes awhile. It's happens with me too.

Get a small flash light! So you can see?

You're going to have those frames worn out, lol

You just said you not need to find her! You see eggs and your 4 minutes are up, get out of there!

[@beesintheweeds]

What rule says you only have four minutes? 🤨🤷🏼‍♂️
I said I’d like to find her just to mark her. It’s not 100% necessary but I wanted to try.
