Introduction in the nucleus colony |
In
fine weather, we make a spare nucleus hive with a few brood combs to which we
add bees from an additional brood comb. The nucleus hive is placed slightly to
the side. All the old bees abandon the nucleus hive and towards evening, the
queen can be introduced. Liquid food is added to the nucleus hive.
