I just did this two days ago. I wasn't expecting to find 12 queen cells. I quickly had to make up 8 splits.

thank you for this educational video! I tried this exact maneuver two weeks ago and the queen cells never matured :/. I think it may have gotten too cold.

Good info I tried this few months ago and lost a bunch of cells as the temperature was so hot the wax was very soft and the cells opened. I also didn't have a shape knife

I have a new hive I got this spring and they were very docile and easy to work with at first but now they've so aggressive that I'm thinking about setting them on fire and giving up on beekeeping. I've been trying to ask for help figuring out what's going on and how to deal with them from my local beekeeping association but they're not able to help so far. I'm desperate, they're stinging me repeatedly even through the suit if I even get near them, and I can't even open the hive to mess with them at all.

Sorry you are having trouble! Each hive is different but you have to try to decide whats wrong. Were you feeding? Could they need feed, you said they are a new hive. How old is the hive , could they have requeened ? Are you in hive beetle territory, could the pest load be high and they need help? Can you calm them with smoke? Could there be a chemical or bug spray going on near the hive? Hard to say with little info. Some hives being a bit aggressive are better defenders from pests, bees all sting even through suits at times. Don't give up just try to figure out why. Good luck 🍀🐝🐝

I'll second Mrs Susan's comment with emphasis on being queenless or stressed from pests ie wax moths or hive beetles.

How long are you giving the new queens to start laying? I installed 2 mated queens I bought from someone about 8 days ago. Neither have started laying yet. I wanted to be sure how much time to give them before they should have started laying. Thanks for this video.

My virgins will lay in about 10 - 14 days. Your mated Q may have been under stress so you could give them 2 weeks ( I have read some give 18 days!)to begin laying again. Be sure they are still in there but do not check too often.Your Qs may have been banked(caged) and not allowed to lay for a while until they came to you. 🍀

If you have multiple frames with multiple queen cells on each, why not just take the whole frame with the queens cells, bees and resources to your new nuc. If you take a mated queen and/or a virgin queen on one of the frames, it shouldn't matter should it? In this case you will have one hive with a queen (virgin or mated) and one without. The one with the queen will take care of any emerging queen cells. The other will continue on with developing a new queen.

Yes! Exactly, you have the choice depending on your apiary management

Why not take all the cells or crush them. Aren't you leaving the swarm conditions still there with the other 4 cells left behind?
