Beekeepers of Nostr

My old Queen is definitely getting towards the end of her productivity. Lots of scattered and patch brood but she’s putting up a valiant last effort.

The hive now has a single superseder queen cell and I think she’ll hatch any day. I’m not expecting the old queen to swam as the hive isn’t strong enough.

They are a very chill hive and I figure the new queen may have a similar temperament. So the questions I have are:

Do I leave them to requeen themselves?

Should I pinch the old queen before the new one hatches?

Should I organise to requeen them myself?

I figured that I can always replace the new queen if the hive gets rowdy.

Even with the "read more" button?

It has been my experience that those most condescending & dismissive of the rights, opinions, and autonomy of anyone who holds an opinion different from their own, are often also the loudest proponents of "democracy." 🤔

If you were not familiar with the term “Sonder” from The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, now you are.

It is one of my favorite words/feelings.

Having a black and tan in honor of my old man’s birthday. He would have been 56 today. Love you, legend.

going through some old meme folders and laughing at the stupid stuff I've saved lol

It is. I honestly don't look forward to it. My neighborhood becomes insane for about 3 hours. My neighborhood is one of the nicer neighborhoods in town, it's very well lit and walkable, plus one neighbor goes all out and puts on a huge, different display every year. 99% of the kids that come don't live here. I have a love and hate relationship with it.

I have 250 kids that visit my house. I love this idea. I might pull the trigger and it this too.
