Do THIS Before Same Apiary Beehive Splits

Описание: Don't Make Beehive Splits In The Same Apiary Until You Do This!

In this comprehensive tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of splitting a beehive. Splitting a beehive is a common practice in beekeeping and involves creating two separate hives from one. This can be done for a variety of reasons, including to prevent overcrowding, to increase the number of hives, or to prevent swarming.

We'll start by discussing the best time to split a hive and the equipment you'll need. Then we'll walk you through the steps of preparing the new hive, including setting up frames, adding foundation, and transferring bees. We'll also show you how to locate the queen bee and make sure she's properly transferred to the new hive.

We'll cover the different methods of splitting a hive, including the walk-away split, the double-screen split, and the split board method. We'll explain the pros and cons of each method and help you choose the one that's best for your situation.

Additionally, we'll share tips on how to manage the new hives after the split, including feeding and monitoring for queen acceptance. We'll also discuss how to prevent issues like robbing and swarming.

This video is perfect for beekeepers of all levels, from beginners to experienced beekeepers looking to expand their beekeeping skills. With our detailed instructions and practical advice, you'll be able to successfully split your beehive and create healthy, thriving hives. So, join us and let's get started!

Making Beehive Splits - Splitting Bees In The Same Apiary - How to Split a Beehive - Making Splits with Bees

In this video I am splitting bees in the same apiary. I show you how to split a beehive and continue my series on making splits with bees.

Splitting hives with a new queen, splitting hive in spring or splitting hives in the same apiary is an easy manipulation but you need to follow some key steps that are detailed in this video.

When splitting a beehive or making splits, you always need to ensure the beehive split is hopelessly queenless before the queen is released from her cage.

Splitting a hive into a nuc can be done in the same apiary or you can take the nucleus colony of bees to another apiary where they will re-orientate.
