      If you mean when the hive makes several new queens, the first one that emerges will kill the other queens. Then, she’ll leave the hive to go mate before returning to start laying eggs.

    @PhonePhone-bz2ql 7 месяцев назад

    I work in a meat dept. Its cool temp wise. One thing I have noticed is I almost never have a bee fly in when the outer door is opened. Now honey bees are not attracted to meat but yellow jackets sure are, there are lots of them outside around the disposal bins and carts meat has been on. But in 2 years I have only had one bee fly in. Why? Can they see the temp difference? Fly's come in and in a couple of minutes they are to cold to fly anymore, so they cannot see the temperature difference I am guessing. But what about the bee's?

    • @RascalApiary
      @RascalApiary 7 месяцев назад

      Honey bees don’t like cooler temperatures. Wasps don’t seem to mind and are opportunistic when it comes to free meat as they’re carnivorous. Honey bees aren’t. They stick to honey and bee bread.

    I know that it's been three years since you made the hive, and it's an interesting hive. The legs, 0in my opinion, should support the hive from under the hive and not just on the side. I created a similar plain box for plants and found that when it was full that the legs sheared away from. the sides. I had to fit an additional 2 x 4 to each leg to support the actual box. I don't have a bee hive as yet, but it may be something I plan to do for 2025. I would also look at building one and not buying one as it has the advantage of customising it to my thoughts. Great job.

I put the inner cover upside down on my top feeder for 1:1 sugar syrup. Came back to refill and about 1000 bees drowned as they got into the top of the syrup....I will never make that mistake again. Then, I learned a lot more, it is hot here, and water source is a mile away....
