Beekeeping & Starting a Brood

Here we can see in this frame we have honey on these corners as we can see. I’m going to open them for you to see the honey flow. And this is the brood. This is the brood where the queen laid eggs and then the eggs grow into little worms and then they capped- they covered every cell. These are cells for future bees acre going to come and get born. So as you can see, even in the third story of the bee hive- but in the center you can also have brood. That’s a good sign, a good sign that the bee hive is in good condition, the queen is laying eggs all over the bee hive, and that’s good. This is very nice brood. Very consistent, continuous. This is honey in this corner, this corner, too. This is honey also, and pollen. Pollen is stored like this in an arc form around the nest, and honey in the corners.
