Queen Bees

Yesterday's new queen has been accepted, so Vince will pull the plug on her cage.
See the blue dot on her back - this year's queen wears blue.

Workers and new queen come in a small box with "candy" to feed on.


Vince takes the workers out.



Putting a new queen in a hive.




Plug and candy on the queen box





Shake the bees






Going back in, we hope to make honey.
