I have had several calls from other members who have had hives go queenless in this manner. I provided 2 of them with my last batch of virgins and gave another a swarm.
I have never known hives to go queenless in this way. Is it just the weather? Can anyone shed a little light on this, please??
I have had three hives go inexplicably queenless this year. First one thought maybe I'd accidentally squished her, second one thought I can't have done that twice, third one can't have done it three times!
All definitely queenless as emergency cells produced.
