(In)Experience,

This Spring I put 3 queens in cages with attendants in a super above an
excluder in a queenright colony. I checked the next day and they were ok. 7
days later I had 3 dead queens. Attendants were ok.
Don't care who says it works, I won't be doing it again. I bet it's easier
with a failing 'right' queen below. Funny how different everything is for
everybody. Maybe that's why there's so much written. An elderly beekeeper
told me to read one book, or else I'd go mad. Wonder what he would think of
internet lists and online translators :-).

I think I'm going to print "Beekeeping is very simple" By Allen Dick on

www.beesource.com.

(Under POV I think) and read that whenever I get full of questions or
ideas...
