New Bee
I have just had my first proper look in the hive for this year. It all looks good, eggs, lavea, queen all seen, couple of frames of stores and lots of bees. I did however find about a dozen capped drone cells all together on one frame, is this normal ?
I am very new to beekeeping, with this being my first colony that was
established last July. Why would they be producing drones at the moment ?
I also removed the remaining piece of fondant and added a feeder and some 1:1 syrup as they have been collecting a lot of water over the last few days.
As ever would be appreciative of guidance / comments.
