What to Do When You Find Brood in Supers

[@beebob1279]

Either do a late split or like you said if it’s near the end of the flow move it down and put honey up.

How do you pull frames and drop them in so fast? I always have bees in the way and have issues putting frames back in without squishing bees. So irritating lol.

What to do if you find brood in the honey super...... you make a new hive with each box and check on them in 3 weeks. The winners will have a new queen and the original queen will keep her hive running smooth. Obviously this is a nut shell comment and there is a lot more to this. But that's what I do when I find brood in multiple boxes..... take advantage of what they are doing and make new hives.

You can spin the frame out with honey and brood and put it back in the hive and they will survive? I wouldn't think they would survive all that spinning plus i would think they would come out of the cells.

If the brood is capped, and you only take a few hours, a surprising amount of the capped brood can survive.

@@thebeesupply What if some of the brood opens up during the extraction? Does it ruin the honey?

Queen excluder = no brood.

Yep! That does fix the issue.:)
