In mite-surviving honeybee populations, have any of you noticed a "shotgun" type of brood area?   A buddy of mine has some very strong hives that haven't been treated and going through the hives the 23rd of September we noticed that in the capped brood area there was a moderate shotgun appearance.  We haven't sampled the bees yet to see what the mite population might be but the adult bee population seemed to be very robust that still contained some drones and  some drone brood still in existence.  Location is 1/2 way between Montgomery and Mobile, Alabama. Mike in LA
