Hi all,
We are removing bees from a house using the screen wire funnel method. We
are doing this in Cullman, Alabama.
We have removed 1 brood chamber full of bees and a raised queen, doing well.
We placed another brood chamber with a frame of eggs, and all ages of brood
and clinging bees and raised a new queen. Two weeks or so ago, she was
laying and looking good.
Yesterday, Aug. 8, I checked to see about when we could complete the
operation. I looked in the hive to find a half dozen or so bees, no queen,
one frame with a lot of capped brood, honey and pollen. Two or so weeks ago,
the hive was well populated, and I thought, doing fine. No dead bees around
and the hive is on a roof, so no one has poisoned or anything.
What has happened? Opinions?
Lionel
