I delved into my apidea and captured my newly mated queen. She has laid all the cells so needs a proper home. Left the bees to look after the eggs and larvae. Took HM to the farm and put her in a cage in the q- part of an A/S from week before last. Then checked all the hives there - and split the biggie into three. One will have the queen - two won't. But no idea which is which. I await an egg hunt on Wednesday. This is in readiness for some queens I have coming. Will have to use the nuc in my garden - that I made to house a QC -for the last queen. I will take the QC down first!
