4 weeks from swarm, and no brood - should I worry?

[richardbees]

rover,
suggest you leave it another week - what can you lose?

rover,
- what can you lose?

Patience

There are moments when you should do decision. 4 week is a limit in mating.

What you can loose? Your last skills in beekeeping

Rover girl, you really must do as you are told.....

......carry on like this and you will be made to sit in the corner!!!

How many colonies did you say you've got Finman? I've forgotten.

Just thought I'd let you know, I re-queened on 10th July and now have BIAS on 3 frames, so if this weather keeps up Hive No 1 might be ok! Hive No 2 now has BIAS across 7 frames, and although a bit of a mess with fused stores on a few frames is looking very happy.
