Talking about ticked off!
Hive One doing GREAT tons of bees, brood honey and great productive queen. The hive is super gentle do not even need a suit as long as smoker is going.
Hive 2 requeened 3 times only 6 frames of bees no brood, hardly any honey can not find queen. What could be wrong here. Beginning of may this was a packaged hive and was immediately treated with medicated sugar water for mites. then the same thing happened as this time no queen, no brood, no honey 3 times. Im at a loss here what should I do with this hive is is 2 deeps should I put them into a nuc with a new queen? any help appreciated.
Hive 3 MEAN as HELL! opened it and nearly choked myself to death with smoke trying to keep them at bay. Suffered 10 stings to the butt & legs. No queen from what I could tell between stings this was re queened with a carnolian because the hive was nasty and there was no queen, brood just honey. this was also a new package hive in may and was also treated in may with medicated syrup. Now What do I do?
PLEASE HELP!
Thank you
Eileen
