Hiving a Swarm and Making a Split, Apimaye 7 Frame Nuc, Swarm Follow-up and split to nucleus hive.
Today I'll take you out into the bee yard so we can put a swarm into the new Apimaye 7 Frame Hive / NUC, and we'll do a follow up on the hive that swarmed on Friday to see if we can't harvest a queen cell and start another nucleus hive.
If you missed the Swarm of Swarms, here you go: • Honey Bee Swarm of Swarms, how many depart...
You may be wondering, didn't you already hive a swarm into that Apimaye 7 Frame Hive? YES, I did indeed, and they departed two days ago, this is known as absconding. They left without a trace.
The good news is that another swarm presented itself for hiving.
