I am in central Mississippi and have a few hives, all seem to be doing well except for one. I tried to re-queen it twice and they rejected the new queen. There is a lot of nectar in the brood box and a lot of bees, but I know they will dwindle away without some new brood. The golden rod hasn't really started blooming here too much yet. I was thinking of adding a frame of capped brood as well as some larvae, and introduce a new queen to get it going again. From all I have read, the fall honey flow should be enough to help get this hive back in shape. Does this sound like a good move?
