Bee knowledge
Without the queen bee, how many days will the swarm fly away?
The queen bee is the most core and indispensable member of the colony. The colony not only needs the queen to lay fertilized eggs to supplement the new worker bees, but also requires the queen pheromone to maintain the order of the bee colony. Once the queen bee colony falls into chaos and eventually moves Perish, let’s take a look at the bee flying away after a few days!
1, the bee colony loses its king
The queen bee will not fly away under normal circumstances. If the bee colony is not manually interfered, there will be two very different endings. One is that when the bee colony is rushed, the bee colony will transform some small larvae of age-appropriate worker bees into the beetle The second is to breed new kings. Some worker bees can’t rush to make Wang Wangtai. Some worker bees develop the ovaries to lay eggs and eventually die.
2, rush to make the king’s platform
The bee queen can transform the worker bee larva into a king stage to breed a new queen bee, but the premise is that there must be a suitable age of worker bee larvae in the colony and a certain swarm. Days, pupal stage 8 days) can emerge from the house, the new queen bee mature and mating with the drone can continue the colony.
3, worker bees spawn
Some worker bees will lay eggs if the bee queen cannot rush to make the king table. The reason is that the queen pheromone secreted by the queen can inhibit the development of worker ovary. If there is no queen in the colony for a long time, some worker bees will develop the ovaries and lay eggs. It can only lay unfertilized eggs (egg cells) and has no substantial effect on the continuation of the colony.
4, remedial measures
- King Jie: The most effective way for the bee to lose the queen is to intervene in a new king. After the king is successful, the order of the colony will soon return to normal.
- Introduction: The bee loses her queen and can intervene in a mature queen. After the new queen bee emerges from the house, the colony will soon return to normal, but the new queen must successfully mate with the drone to lay eggs.
- Adjusting the spleen: The bee loses her queen and can be transferred into the egg spleen to rush to make the king’s platform. As long as the herd and the weather are suitable, the queen can be created successfully. Cover the spleen.
