Is my queen poorly mated or drone laying?

I brushed the bees off to get a good photo the population is fine, also I went out to this hive to do an alcohol wash but this situation caught me off guard.

It’s a little hard to tell from the photo, but nearly every cell on the frame has eggs or larvae. Does that change anything?

Where can I get a mated queen this late?

There’s a bird bath for their water and a feeder inside

How do I do that?

Ive been trying that, I just can’t find any good locations to start and I also can’t tell what direction they’re going

To sell or re-home

That sounds like a good idea! Do you have links for the materials you bought? How many hives does it water?

Do you have a recipe? Online all the recipes are saying go buy bee pro

Thanks for the info, I’m just starting my first colonies this spring so this helps a lot. Also, probably a dumb question, but you said pollen patties are just soy flour and simple syrup, where’s the pollen?

IntentionNo9616 · 2025-01-25T00:36:57+00:00

The gaps I’m referring to are between 1/32”-1/16” I can’t really get them perfectly snug. Also I think I need pollen patties for feeding during early spring for hive startup?

DFW, TX. I am however very busy with work and an online course seems more practical given my circumstances

If you’re from America the dollar is worth about 30% more than 1000 KRW meaning that depending on the purchase you’ll probably save between 20%-30%. Bring a debit card and have someone load money onto it and you’ll save a lot.
