Hi there I have no doubt every is busy bees at the moment. But I am a bit confused. A friend of mine has/had a real calm hive. But on Thursday we inspected the brood box and knocked of about a dozen queen cells. We could not find the original queen, but the hive was full of bees, we had one supper on but now have two.
The problem is the calm bees are not calm any more. We only need to go out into the garden and a bee will make a bee line in and attack us. They are now very aggressive bees. I thought that there might not be enough food but there is still six supper frames of food on the hive which we left on, so it’s not that. Is it possible that they have turned ferial?
