CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Why are my bees isolated but not producing honey?

1. Why do my bees only have separate cages but don’t produce honey?

There are problems on all sides. Once swarming fever occurs, it is like what you said, that the old swarmers do not produce honey. This is because after the bees have reached a certain level, the range of the bees begins to decrease, and there are too many bees. For example, a comb (beeswax made by bees) (beekeepers call it a comb) was originally crawling with 10,000 bees, but now it has bred more, and it is very tight at this time, because there are too many bees, and they will swarm. Another situation is that even if there are very few bees, they will swarm. This is because the biological clock of the bees has been disrupted, but it can still be adjusted. For example, if the queen bee is not good and the egg-laying capacity is very poor, the bees will have swarming fever. A good queen can produce a thousand pounds of honey, this is what beekeepers often say, such as If it is a new queen, then its power to control swarming heat will be stronger. If it is a queen that has been there for more than 2 years, the swarming heat will be stronger. As for the question just now, old swarming... you can open your beehive, find the queen first, and see if the queen has laid eggs. (Some bees swarm for several boxes in a row, so there may be a virgin queen in your current beehive..) If it is a virgin queen, wait for it to lay eggs first and then deal with it. If it is already an egg-laying queen, then cut off half of its wings, and then cut off all the queen cells in the beehive. (The queen cell refers to a base for raising queens, which is built upside down at the bottom of the beeswax.) Make sure to clear them all.

2. Now is the longan flowering season, why do bees only lay eggs but no honey?

The queen bee first lays eggs in the hive, and the bees feed the eggs, and then they slowly transform into bees. It takes about 21 days for eggs to become bees.

3. Why hasn't the queen bee laid any eggs in the box of bees I bought more than a week ago? Is the bee collecting honey normally?

The worker bee has an egg stage of 3 days, a larva stage of 6 days, a cap stage of 12 days, and a total of 21 days to leave the hive. Honey bees are social bees that live in groups and undergo metamorphosis (eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults). They are composed of three types of bees (worker bees, queen bees, and drones). They live in the hive and feed on pollen and nectar. The queen bee is the mother of the family, and the worker bees (honey bees) and drones are the children of the queen bee. This is a typical matriarchal system.

4. There are no honey bees on the hive. Does that mean there are no bees anymore?

After collecting pollen, bees will return to the hive to make honey. If there are no bees in the hive, there will be no bees. However, if you place the hive in a place where bees often appear, it will continue to attract bees.
