Splitting a Hive with Queen Cells Using a Queen Castle

In this video, I show how I split a hive that had queen cells by placing one frame in each of the three chambers of a queen castle. After 4 weeks, all three chambers had eggs, proof that the splits successfully raised queens. I then transferred each colony into a 10-frame hive. This is a great way to expand your apiary or prevent swarming!
