Troubleshooting Queen Issues

A strong, healthy queen will be laying a generous amount of eggs each day. You should see lots of eggs, larvae and capped brood on 3-4 frames. If not, look for the queen. Is she in the hive? If not, look for queen cups or cells. Are they raising a new queen? If so, let them raise the new queen. Or purchase a new one but remove any queen cells before installing her. Always keep a strong laying queen in your hive at all time. Do not let a poor queen go unnoticed.

Your Bees May Do Some Strange Things. What Will You Do?
Knowing what to do and when is the tricky part of beekeeping. Let me be your mentor. I have a special mentorship program called BeeTeam6 where you can call, email or text me concerns or questions you are having about your bees. Plus you receive a weekly tip and a weekly instructional beekeeping video. Even if you are not keeping bees yet, this is perfect to help you gain the education you need before you start. Or if you are starting this year, why not have the extra peace of mind by having someone you can consult. 
 
I'm glad you are keeping bees or thinking about it. Thank you for supporting our family business for all your beekeeping needs.

Sincerely,

David and Sheri Burns
