Today was hive inspection day, first at my friend Regina's we inspected her 4 hives. We were looking for their queens and found 3 out of 4 and marked them. Then ran home and inspected my 3 hives as well as my neighbor David's hive. Upon inspecting the newest hive that I started about 10 days ago, I was quite pleased to see a couple of queen cups, closed and a trace of a queen in them. (this picture I borrowed). So by my estimation, she should emerge in a few days! This year seems like it is going to be a great year for the bees!!! |
