Queen bee needed
« on: September 16, 2012, 08:32:36 pm »
My two hives are both queenless after swarming a few weeks ago and failing to produce a mated queen.
If anyone in the Mid Wales / Shropshire area has a queen to spare, perhaps combining colonies before winter I'd love to rehome one.
thanks.

Hi I think you may have to wait until next spring 'sorry'

If there's no queen, there'll be no bees by next spring!

Think I've got it sorted, buying one from someone from another forum.

It's very unlikely to get mated now so I hope its a fertilised queen
