Watch Out For Early Swarms

Why you want to split? It will destroy your honey yield?

.

I will still should get around 100lb of honey from this hive After spliting.
for got to say I did join my other hive with this one 4 weeks ago.

You are totally wrong.

1) Good yield comes from good pastures

2) Good foraging powers comes from good big hives.
You can do foraging power better if you take the queen away
and make brood brake in main yield.

You may add foraging power when you join two hives and keep a bad layer in the hive during main yield.

3) To find best yield is to move hives to good pastures

Swarming is not a good yield strategy.

I split my hive Last year.
(I lost my other hive in winter.)
And still got 98lb and 30lb from the new hive.
