If you need mated Queens call Barnyard bees 706-508-8605 we will ship anywhere in the country except Hawaii and Alaska.
Please note in the video you will hear two Queens piping I had them in cages beside me on a stand not to be confused with two queens in the hive.
Watch as I demonstrate how to tell if Hive will accept a new Queen I directly released this queen after only been in the cage with the hive for 30 minutes they accepted her I checked the very next day and she was still doing fine. Please remember I added an element of difficulty by using a hive that had Queens cells. it's even harder for them to accept a mated Queen with Queen cells. under normal conditions you would want to remove the queen cell one day prior to installing your queen.

I always tend my bees in nothing more than jeans, t-shirt and veil. In only use the veil to keep them from buzzing my eye, that's very distracting.

Then I saw what looked like one that had its mouthparts on her leg like it was trying to bite her. I left her in a roller cage and will check on it tomorrow. Hopefully they will take it. This was a walk away split that failed. The queen cell they raised must have failed and they have been without a queen for over a month.

[@drumgerry]

Introducing her to a nuc sized colony was/is always a good idea. A delayed release system might have been better if that was a full sized colony. For beginners if you get a new queen make a nuc up to receive her (and use delayed release as a failsafe) and then if you need to requeen a full colony unite the nuc to it over newspaper (having first removed the old queen of course).

Depends on the hive. Mine are super docile, I hardly smoke them at all to work them, I can replace their feed no smoke, no protection. An agressive hive may attack from across the yard, though. That hive should have had it's queen destroyed and a docile queen introduced.
