- We are passionate about beekeeping and really enjoy helping beekeepers through our TH-cam channel.
On our channel you can find information on making splits with swarm cells, making increase with queen cells, grafting larvae, foulbrood and disease inspection, honey extraction and machinery, top tips for beginners, products reviews, instructions and guidance plus much more.
#NONONSENSEBEEKEEPING is a UK based beekeeping channel, designed to keep beekeeping as simple and enjoyable as possible. There are no overly complicated techniques or intricate pieces of equipment.
We cover all beekeeping topics ranging from queen rearing, disease recognition/control, honey extraction, swarm management/collection, how to make splits and much more!
My personal favourite aspects of beekeeping are selecting queens for rearing, rearing queens for mating, making up nucs for overwintering and collecting swarms.
We aim to bridge the gap between commercial and hobbyist beekeepers and cater for beekeepers of all experience levels.

I love that you have started displaying the date❤
It was a highly requested feature so I had to oblige :)
Where it is?
@@dogblackprincehoney At the begining of the video.
@@jasonlewis8233 Thank you.
@@BlackMountainHoneyit really does make a difference, so, thank you!
Almost the same exact thing has been happening to us. We got too much paint on a queen, in her eyes. She survived it and was doing ok, then we were in a dearth and the hive became very very weak and we went almost a month with no eggs or larvae from her. I kept feeding them but they kept getting robbed despite robbing screens, wet towel, etc. and the queen continued to not perform (I now realize this was probably due to lack of food). I bought a new queen, looked all over to remove the over-painted queen but couldn't find her. Installed the new queen in the queen cage and they didn't seem aggressive towards her. Came back 3 days later and she was released but couldn't find her, then found the painted queen again and all of a sudden (nectar flow started) she is laying again! And I am out the money for the new queen who they presumably killed, LOL.
Wet towel?
I have a hive that were doing the same thing. I knocked the first cell back because i panicked. Then they knocked 2 other cells back before a dearth came and the queen stopped laying for almost 2 weeks. Everything is back to normal and the queen has always been a prolific layer. Really strange, but I'm a first year bee keeper
Maybe the bees realise that there's something strange about Splodge, but that she's otherwise doing her job well. They therefore build queen cells in case Splodge fails after all. If this happens, they let the new queen hatch, but if Splodge continues to do well, they take down the queen cell shortly before hatching.
I once read about a bee species or subspecies that does this all the time. Unfortunately, I can't remember which bees they were.
I’ve had exactly the same with one of mine, I had a superseder cell, then they took it down. Then they made another one and done the same. Very strange.
Very strange isnt it. First time ive ever seen them make and remove their own supersedure cells on multiple occasions!
@@BlackMountainHoney I had the bee inspector checking 2 of my apiaries yesterday and he couldn’t believe what they had done.
This yr I’ve had 5 of my 6 hives supersede. This is on 3 new nucs and 2 had this yrs mated BMH mated queens that had established and were settled for a few months, then the last 2 months 5 hives superseded?? A strange year 🤷🏻♂️
Can Splodge destroy the cell?
What happened to the clear visor you installed into the hood of one of your suits? Do you still use it?
I accidentally made a splog, with much sadder result, The paint just flowed out of the pen dousing the queen, she instantly died.
You could never lose Splodge could you 😂 I am watching this on my iPhone and I could see her before you said 😂
I've had this happen twice - in 2 different colonies this summer & I have only been beekeeping since June this year !!
Long live the Splodge
Damn that looks so funny. Splodge 😅poor girl
SPLODGE LIVES ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Women...... can't make up their mind...... 😂
