I just can't make them fast enough.
It's beginning to go a little crazy in my apiaries at the moment with bees, swarms and drones going in all directions making honey and mating. At the end of the process hopefully it will all settle down and we should have some sound new laying queens. So far I have only marked half a dozen queen bees green (this year's colour) and half of those have been swarms.
There was a very nice large swarm of bees on the handle of Furgle's rusty old wheelbarrow. My bee from Furgle's hive? A fair bet I would say. Now they are on allotment 83 by the small pear tree in a WBC brood box. If there is a laying queen I think she can be called Rusty.
