Had a look into the hives. No.1 has capped the open charged queen cell and is building new comb which they are filling rapidly with nectar. Saw a quantity of larvae which has hatched since the swarm on Friday. The bees were a bit tetchy, probably missing her majesty.
No.2 (the split from before the swarm) showed a few capped queen cells in hard to see places so i broke down all but two. Most held queen larvae which the chickens loved. Pity I am not geared up to use the queen cells.
No.3 which held the swarm from No.1 hive swarm on Friday has drawn lots of new comb on the new foundation and stowed a lot of nectar in it. I saw Tiger Lily but could not see any eggs yet. The light was patchy sunlight through the trees and the new comb...
Due to this situation I am unfortunately being forced to give up Bee Keeping. So I have three Nationals with Bees and equipment for sale.
1 x Cedar National / Buckfasts.
1 X Cedar National / !!!!
1 x Painted White National with Swarm.
3 x Camo Suits / New
New Box of frames.
Some Foundation.
Various equipment.
If any one is interested please contact me, thanks.
So did weekly hive check today. Saw lots of Queen cells, several capped ones and no Queen to be seen. :hairpull:
As I was walking down to the hives I heard the buzz and saw the circling cloud of bees emanating from the wbc hive. Having seen a swarm gathering previously I recognised the signs so I sent a text to my son who fortunately was on leave from work so he could come and look.
The swarm drifted off South but happily gathered in my thorn tree about 30 metres away and around 4 metres high.
By extreme good luck I had assembled a hive yesterday so we gathered it together, made up some frames with wax and using a national flat lid plus cardboard cover we placed it on the ground close to the swarm. With a pair of tall stepladders and lopping shears I trimmed around the swarm, then as it bridged 3 separate branches clipped these in turn and passed...
Very hot today clouds of young bees practicing flying in front of both hives. A steady stream of bees bringing in pollen to the WBC hive from the South East.
Had a drive over to the local garden centre which is in the same direction and noticed a large field of Borage next to the centre has come into bloom plus the OSR close to it is still in full bloom. No wonder the hive was bursting at the seams with nectar. Hope the foraging stays good until the split hive gets going and builds up into a strong colony.
Had a chat re the congestion in my hive and also found the hives at the apiary were close to the same situation.
Decided to do a split so went home then when the sun had gone off the hive I opened up and noticed there were a few frames in the super where bees had just started on the waxworks today.
Found Tiger Lily on 4th brood frame and put that frame back into original hive. I did see eggs, larva and capped cells on her frame. The bees seemed to have cleared some space for the new eggs, maybe they had evaporated the nectar down?
Found a frame of brood with a queen cell hiding round the edge of comb and which I saw was charged so transferred that plus two more frames of brood into a new hive, also a frame of honey/nectar to get them...
Carried out an inspection as planned and found all brood frames looking good. The end frames full of capped honey and nectar. All the other brood frames fully drawn and a good pattern of sealed brood, larvae and eggs with bees clustered thickly over the frames. Tiger Lily in residence on 4th frame from the end. There were a number of bees clustered at various spots in the super but no progress had been made re drawing out the foundation.
Worryingly almost every open or otherwise unused cell in the bottom 14 x 12 box contained nectar which made me concerned about triggering a swarm through lack of laying space. There were a number of empty qc's which I broke down. I will ask at the apiary session tomorrow for guidance but I am thinking...
The annual picnic and honey show today so no apiary training this week.
Having said that the judge explained everything as he went through the exhibits and I gained a lot of information and tips for the future when I get my beekeeping to the stage when I actually extract some honey. (probably next year?)
Everyone took a food contribution and the afternoon was a chance to chat to previously unmet members of the association. All in all a really enjoyable afternoon.
For the last few days the landing board has been like Heathrow with bees staggering back laden. I decided to have another look to make sure there was still room for Tiger Lily to keep laying. The new sheets of foundation I put in on the 21st have been drawn out and lots of the new comb has nectar loaded. There is still room for laying but just to make sure the space isn't filled up with stores I have given them the last empty frame of 14 x 12 foundation there was room for and put a super on tonight. They can use it if necessary or not as the bees wish.
Judging by the capped brood we are in for some serious expansion soon.
I passed one full frame of nectar to my son to let him compare the weight with the frame of foundation. The...
Decided to check the comb occupancy this evening as last inspection had shown rapid drawing out of comb on the new foundation installed when the bees transferred to the hive from the nuc. At that inspection I had installed another frame of foundation.
Tonight all frames had been drawn out and Tiger Lily was exploring a freshly drawn empty frame. The other brood frames were well covered, heavy, with eggs, larvae and capped cells present. No queen cells to be seen and just a small number of drone cells.
A lot of stores with nectar, both clear and some a little darker with capped cells also plus some pollen
Put another two frames of foundation in as I thought if they are drawing comb they might as well make some more space for the future...
At the start of this afternoons Apiary session the heavens opened so everyone got back into their cars. Five minutes later the downpour stopped and the clouds passed over so the session started.
All the hives were filling up with honey/nectar so having done the inspections the two with least space had additional supers fitted, the biggest was fitted with a rhombus clearer board above the new super but below the full supers.
On leaving the Apiary I called at Yorkshire Beehives and chatted with Paul who showed me his mornings honey harvest. Leaving there I telephoned ahead then dropped off the nuc box which my bees had come in. Over a cup of tea we chatted bees as you would expect :-)
Collected horse feed on my journey home and on...
The bees have been in and out of the nuc all day and many coming in laden with yellow pollen so their explorations have obviously borne fruit.
I have the new frames and foundations installed in the empty hive brood box with a gap for the frames from the nuc to go into. I am pondering whether to swap the colony over tonight or wait a bit longer.
Drove over to York yesterday evening to view bees. Slight satnav malfunction saw me phoning my destination from a junction and found I was actually pretty close to where the hives were kept so I was collected and followed the owner to the spot where the bees were.
There were three possibles, a full size brood and two nucs, with all 3 being on 14 x 12 frames. All were healthy Buckfasts and queens marked. Eggs, larvae etc in good supply and stores building up.
After deliberation I decided to take the smaller of the nucs. I had some insect screen gauze so we stuffed the entrance with foam sponge and wrapped the opened top of the nuc with the gauze for ventilation in transit, put it in back of the discovery, secured it upright, paid for the...
In one of my hives the bees have extended the brood frames between 4 and six inches it is very thick and contains sealed cells and honey. I added supers over a month ago but they seem to be very happy staying were they are and not going to the supers. Shall I cut the comb off from the supers or leave it?. I have had both suggestions from beekeepers, so do not know which is correct.
Another interesting week. I contacted one of the beeks from Beverley who had welcomed me to the forums a few weeks ago and drove over to see him for a cup of tea and a chat. It was great to see his hives had a stream of bees going in and out. Spent a couple of hours of pleasant conversation and will no doubt repeat the process.
I also made contact with a beekeeper with some 14 x 12 nucs of bees for sale and am driving over Monday night to have a look. Planning on coming back with one if they are good and price is right. I have made up a fixed eke to convert my wbc brood box to 14 x 12 just need some more frames and wax now.
Went to the BABKA apiary practical session this afternoon and learned that there had been EFB discovered in a...
Please read below the open letter which I sent on 20th March 2013.
"This open letter is to notify you that, with immediate effect, I am resigning my Membership of the London Beekeepers’ Association (LBKA).
After five years of LBKA Membership, I have been dismayed by the unwelcome blurring of the lines between the personal and business interests of a small number of elected LBKA Officers and their roles as representatives of the LBKA.
By way of illustration, I submitted a motion under “Any Other Business” at the 2012 LBKA AGM which, in the interests of transparency, required that all LBKA Committee Members should disclose their commercial bee-keeping activities within the London area. This proposal was passed unanimously at the AGM...
Earlier this year, when I resigned from my local Beekeeping Association, The London Beekeepers’ Association (LBKA). My conscience dictated that I expose the self-serving practices and irregularities of a small number of LBKA officials. The LBKA has become unrecognisable from the benevolent bee-club which I had joined five years previously, having become more interested in selling over-priced seed-packets (indulgences for the guilt-racked burghers of London) and in self-promotion than in the craft of beekeeping. This Spring, I made the decision to resign and blow the whistle on their shabby antics.
So please read below the open letter which I “Nailed To The Beehive” on 20th March 2013.
"This open letter is to notify you that, with...
