🔶 Re-Queening with Cells

It's late August and we are re-queening our production colonies. In this video, I show how we pull Queens and drop in mature cells which will emerge the next day. These new Queens will mate and start laying within less than 2 weeks.

Good video Tony. That'll work just as well here in Australia. Thanks.

Thanks. This is the easiest way for anyone who grafts even a few cells.

Hello Tony, hopefully you don't have as many dragonflies as I do. That second hive was packed!

Not many at all this year
