    Clear and concise! And a few steps others fail to mention, like 10:11.

    My new mated queen who I purchased two weeks ago is not laying. What’s the problem?

    6:55 Marla’s hair, t-shirt, and headlamp all indicate a production date of around 1996. Such a great video!
    UPDATE: 13:14 I was off by 2 years 😭

    Selective breeding has made honeybees prone to diseases and pests since selection was based on honey production and lack of swarming...

      BeeFriendlyApiary more importantly it is about encouraging queen rearing in your local area. Producing queens suitable to the climate in your area and not relying on queen breeders from the south, you want hardy bees. The next step would be encouraging breeding programmes within your association. Rotating the breeding to reduce inbreeding. However the downside is some beekeepers like certain strains of bees.

      @@charitablemiraclebeekeeper1200 selection in the past, when there were skeps, produced swarmy bees, any that didn't swarm were destroyed. We have changed the behaviour of bees. The package bees if open mating, the queen will mate with drones from other beekeepers, this will reduce inbreeding. If using instrumental insemination, you would get packages from different areas and cross with your selection of drones. The only other way would be to flood the area with drones of your choice.

      @@charitablemiraclebeekeeper1200 Your bees will be diluted with the mongrels around you. If you only want a certain type, then you will be buying in queens on a constant basis. Your main concern is keeping the line pure not inbreeding.

    Why aren't they wearing gloves? They keep getting stung you can see it in the videos. There are much easier ways to do this without all that boxes shuffling.
