Hygiene testing

[B+.]

I've been doing some hygiene testing today
The first clip is a bee doing it's thing while I was looking for purple-eyed brood
The second clip is just as I had finished marking the sample area

Unfortunately, the file-size is too big to post here so I put them on Twitter

EDIT: I put the first one on YouTube for anyone who doesn't have twitter.

I don't think she needed your help Dani. Her sisters were there to help and they're hygienic

This is NL-55-35-31-2020 - a daughter of NL-55-3-8-2018 mated to C-VarroaToleranz line drones from the Kirchhain Bee Institute DE-7-45-363-2017 on the German island of Norderney last summer.

I know but it’s that reflex you get watching something struggle. You want to get in there and do it for them
