Making a Walk-Away-Split


My queens in my hives are two years old and I plan to re-queen in the fall. I want queens from my present hives so I have made a couple of walk-away-splits. One frame with eggs, two frames of capped brood with nurse bees, honey and pollen. Place in five frame nuc nad let bees raise their own queen. In four weeks check for a laying queen.
