🐝✈️ From the cockpit to the bee yard! Chuck's back and diving straight into some serious Demaree hive management.
🤔 Did the added caged queen successfully establish herself? Is scratching honey cappings really the key to creating brood space? And what exactly happens when you perform a "Second Demaree" on a towering colony? 🤷♂️
📍 Highlights in this episode:
✅ Watch a real-time Day 9 queen cell check & cut in a young Demaree hive.
✅ See the technique (and cool tool!) for collecting royal jelly from queen cells.
✅ Confirmation time! We look for eggs to see if the introduced queen is laying.
✅ Addressing honey-bound & pollen-bound frames – making crucial space for the queen!
✅ Performing a "Second Demaree" on that monster hive based on YOUR feedback!
✅ Adding a TON of foundation to give the bees room to expand.
✅ Follow-up on the honey capping scratching experiment – did the bees move it or just recap?
