I have three hives.
The first is doing well.
The second the queen is going gang busters. If there is an open cell, there is an egg.
The third, well I am scratching my head.
I'll go through it and there will be a couple of frames with just a little bit of broad here and there. Several frames with nothing at all. Then I will find one frame covered with eggs. A week later I will come back and it seems like the same though all over again. Also I've found one supersedure cell.
If they don't like the queen will the hive mass cannibalizing / destroy the eggs?
As for mites, I only had a single one visible in the wash I did about three weeks ago.
