Walk-Away Split (Phase 2): Queen Cells, Castle Splits & Queen Check

lighter for smoker Last week we started this walk-away split series by creating the split. Now it’s time to check the progress! In this video we inspect the split box for queen cells, divide those cells into castle nucs, and then return 8 days later to see if we can spot virgin queens, eggs, or signs of a successful mating flight. This is one of the most exciting parts of beekeeping — watching a colony raise its own queens naturally. We’ll discuss what to look for, timing, and what signs tell you the split is progressing correctly. Whether you’re new to bee splits or trying to increase your hive count naturally, this video walks you through the next phase step-by-step. 🐝 Thanks for watching and supporting The Rabbitry Center and Bobby’s Beez! _________________________ FIND MORE TERRIFIC BEEKEEPING PRODUCTS HERE: https://www.amazon.com/shop/therabbitrycenter/list/DK5C314SNFSW?ccs_id=31e0e39f-1d6b-4796-b9f9-24a9f46ffb9a _________________________ OUR OTHER YOUTUBE CHANNELS THE RABBITRY CENTER / therabbitrycenter BOBBYS BUCKS / @bobbysbucks ___________________________________ PODCAST EPISODE- https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/22-the-20-most-common-questions-asked-to-a-beekeeper/id1706891445?i=1000657457357 _____________________________________ BEEKEEPING BEGINNER BOOK- https://amzn.to/39gtPrb ________________________________________ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WATCHING This channel is an amazon affiliate so if you click any of our free links and make a purchase amazon gives us a small commission at no extra cost to you.
