Also note, it was only the one hive that seemed to be bothered by the skunk. The colony was also short pollen which limits the ability to raise brood. This hive check was preformed [&#8230;]]]></description>

This shows you what it looks like if things go wrong and they don&#8217;t raise a queen. This is a queenless colony that is dwindling. Kirk shows the frames, bees, and gives options for dealing with a queenless hive! [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This video shows what bearding looks like. During warm weather bees will often beard on the outside of the hive, especially in the late afternoon. One easy check is if the bees go in at night. If they don&#8217;t, then that is a good indication they are out of room. Kirk gives some suggestions on [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[We can&#8217;t stress enough that hive inspections should be about looking for evidence of a queen, not about finding the queen. Look for eggs, larvae, and brood. What do you do if you find a supersedure cell? These are typically on the frame in the main brood area. As a general rule we leave them [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Our general rule is that you add another box when the colony is covering 60-80 percent of the frames in a box. (Kirk says 80-90 in the video but don&#8217;t let them get that crowded if you can avoid it). This is a new package started 21 days ago in drawn comb from a deadout. [&#8230;]]]></description>

If we don&#8217;t need the bees for a split we tend to choose supering for honey production when they have the workforce to take advantage of nectar flows. If we find that the colony has run out of room and already decided to start the swarming process (swarm cells in use [&#8230;]]]></description>
