In response to all of the feedback I got from you, let's dig into this hive and figure out is this American or European would brood OR....is is parasitic mite syndrome caused my varroa mites?? These 2 are soooo commonly confused so let's find out!

Took your advise and moved my small colony into a 5 frame. Move went extremely well and we will check in a couple weeks. Have a flow going on so hope they fill out more.
You make a great queen bee keeper ❤🐝
My warm recommendation for thinking to all beekeepers, raise bees that are genetically destined for your climate. The Italian yellow bee likes warmer areas and does not know how to behave in a cold climate. The European dark Carnica bee is more resistant to the cold and withstands the winter better. It survives more easily. The cause of most problems in the hive is the beekeeper.
The bee will solve most of the problems by itself. My support, wonderful videos
Looks like possible K wing from Nosema, or chronic bee paralysis with the disjointed wings. They don't look shiny enough for the latter.
Good job, very educational
I love hive alive. Great stuff. I also use amino b booster, apis biologix. After mite treatments I use vitamine c. But I only have 2 top bar hives. So I spend the money. Lol

What you are doing is dropping mite bombs on everyone that is keeping bees close to you. Being treatment free is only working well for beeks that are more isolated.
You could just as easily say that all the beekeepers that are treating weak sick bees around her are propping up bad genetics that are devitalizing the gene pool of everyone around them. Letting natural selection do it's thing is not the problem. Artificially propping up bad genes and allowing them to reproduce is probably the most detrimental thing one can do for the long term health of honey bees in North America. It's kicking the can down the road in an attempt to avoid temporary losses, like an obese diabetic that takes loads of medications instead of just changing their diet and losing the weight. There are feral bees everywhere thriving without treatments. If these bees are killing off your weak sick bees you should be thankful.
Are you going to treat for mites or let them die
We are 100% survival stock only. No treatments. If they don’t make it then they weren’t the bees we wanted anyway.
You are making mite bombs for other people like Randy Oliver says if your not going to treat a infested hive kill it before it infests others @@beefitbeekeeping
you are doing great....had same problem....
Good luck with no treatment. It never worked for me. I use oa and apiguard it's the only way I could keep my bees alive.
I thought European Brood turns white and hard like a chalk stick..and like you said, American comes out like a piece of string.
There is always a chance the queen would bee failing and you have a high mite count
Treat the bees that have mite problems, dont treat the hives that test low, doesn't make sense to not treat a hive that has high mite levels, use the hives with low mite levels as your future stock, good luck!
Omg! You got to watch September 2023 Michigan Beekeeping office hours. Has some info you'll enjoy. Lmk if you like it. I know you're not in Michigan but good webinar :) it's on youtube
Thanks Brenda! I will check it out! But…guess what! I actually am in Michigan ☺️ so that’ll be perfect
@@beefitbeekeeping oh wow. I'm in Wisconsin. Hello neighbor:)
European foul brood disent get rope like. I said sac brood before. I think if mites were lowered and some vitamine c that hive could bounce back.
Look up honey bee diseases pics. Can put ut in your notebook if printed out.
If they have high mite loads you should euthanize the hive. Sad but thats what I heard what the person that invented layens hive does. Cant remember his name. Ugg
I was getting back into bees.saved a lot of money/grief by waiting 12ths.not worth the effort anymore.T800Aust
I was thinking about starting. Glad I didn't, I am right in the middle of a kill zone now, so all my effort would have been wasted.
