Trying OTS queen rearing for the first time. Two hives, one with 5 but the second one only chose to raise 1, and not a promising one really. #beestr #grownostr

We did a follow up inspection this week. The hive that had only one cell has hatched and mated successfully. The other one didn't appear to have any brood which made us think it failed, but then we spotted the queen bee so 2 tries - 2 wins. It was really exciting for us amateurs. #beestr
