Hello All,
Š•arly this spring I had forgotten to introduce a queen to a queenless hive. These days I noticed that it was attacked and robbed by the bees and nothing left but thieves and some honey in the combs. I decided to make a bee colony out of it. As usually I do splitting with brood and introduce queen without a problem I decided to experiment and try it just with bees. Any idea how to do it in this situation so that "the thieves" will accept the virgin queen efficiently. I have 4 combs of honey in the box and a lot of bees on it "waiting" for their new queen.
Thanks for all advice.
Stefan
