How to choose a good queen

First of all, young bees in the bee colony, although generally can live 4 years to 5 years, but after 2 years, the spawning ability will gradually weaken, so choose the queen to choose young, 1 to 2 years old is better .

In order to grow long, the queen bee's body is long, and the ovary tube is long and there will be more spawning. In general, good queens with a body length of about 25 mm should be selected and should not be shorter than 20 mm in length.

Third, the individual must be under normal circumstances, a large body weight of the queen bee, genital development, spawning more, in the spawning period, can produce 1,000 to 2000 eggs per day. The total weight of eggs can often exceed the weight of the queen bee itself. Generally, good queens weighing 300 milligrams or more should be selected.

Fourth, a good queen bee with good spawning ability should not only be able to lay more than 1,000 grains per day, but also produce eggs that must be neat and produce only 1 spleen before they reach another spleen. If a queen bee spawns only a few hundred grains a day, and is spawned on the spleen, there are dozens of grains produced here and there are dozens of grains produced. It is very irregular and will affect the development of bee colonies and honey production, and should be eliminated.
