Dark brown ones are better than black ones. How to choose a good queen bee: 1. Carefully observe the appearance, color, body shape and behavior of the queen bee
There are no more than 2 types of queen bees, one is the black queen, and the other is the queen bee with a jujube red abdomen. The black queen bee is black all over and has a small body. The worker bees in the colony are also slightly smaller, fast flying, and strong resistance, but the reproduction is slow, the development of the colony is slow, the honey production is slightly lower, and the bee distribution is strong; The jujube queen bee is large, tame in temperament, strong in oviposition, the colony can be cultivated into a strong group, the yield of bee products is stable, but the resistance is poor, and the yellow ring in the abdomen of the worker bee is obvious and the temperament is tame.
The number of jujube queen bees is not very large under artificial culture, and the traits are very unstable. In terms of body size, the queen bee has a slender abdomen, is not afraid of light, has a tail close to the eye, and lays eggs in an orderly manner; On the other hand, the abdomen is short, the tail is slightly blunt, and the photophobia is inferior. In an apiary, we generally select the queen bee based on its ability to lay eggs and the size of the egg circle.
Those who do not meet the conditions should be dealt with promptly. 2. The advantages and disadvantages of the queen bee are closely related to the local climate and honey source? Experienced beekeepers are good at taking advantage of the local conditions such as time and place to breed kings and divide bees.
The climate is warm, the source of honey is abundant, the worker bees are active in attendance, and the spleen is large, which is a good time to breed a new king. In Guangdong, the "spring equinox" to "Xiaoman" is the first season of the bee to breed the king; Individual mountainous areas "miscanthus species" and black tree flowering period can also be produced while raising kings, but the quantity can not be too much, too much will be the quality of Wangtai. Our requirements for the royal platform are plump in shape and moderate in position, but not the longer the better, and the longer it is, the more dead the platform; The deformed royal platform should be removed in time.
3. It is an important task to screen the queen bee based on the size of the egg circle, usually to do a good job of observation and recording, based on the level of the queen's oviposition and the size of the spleen. Therefore, the screening of queen bees depends on making records at ordinary times, keeping the good ones, and enduring the pain treatment of the poor. The Chinese bee is an excellent bee species, and the advantages and disadvantages of the queen bee are often related to the success or failure of the apiary.
I hope that friends who love bees will overcome all difficulties and use the eugenics theory of the biological world, select species every year, change the king every year, and carry forward the excellent characteristics of bees.

There is no definitive answer when it comes to the varieties of the queen bee, as their choice often depends on specific needs and circumstances. However, there are some varieties of queen bees that may be better suited for certain conditions, such as:
Cold regions: cold king, cold bee, etc.;
Warm regions: heat kings, tropical bees, etc.;
Nectar source plants: Different nectar source plants may require different varieties of queen bees;
Other factors: such as disease resistance, spawning ability, etc.
Therefore, the selection of the variety of the queen bee should be evaluated and selected on a case-by-case basis.

Both the single queen and the double queen have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the single queen colony has a slower reproduction rate, but it is highly productive and easy to manage. The double king colony reproduces quickly, but it is prone to split bee fever, and it is difficult for the double king bee colony...
1. Single queen bee colony.
In nature, bees form colonies with a single queen. In other words, there is only one queen bee in a colony. In fact, single queen colonies are also the most common colonies used in beekeeping production.
While the reproductive efficiency may not be as efficient as a double queen colony with two queens, colony management is much simpler than a double queen colony. In addition, under the same conditions, the productivity of a single queen colony tends to be higher than that of a double queen colony.
Two which burns, double king bee colony.
The most obvious advantage of the double queen colony is that the reproduction speed is fast, especially in the spring breeding and autumn reproduction, the efficiency of the double queen spawning is incomparable with the single king, but the disadvantages of the double queen colony are also obvious, for example, the double king bee colony is more prone to bee fever than the single queen bee colony during the honey flow period, and it is difficult for the double king bee colony to develop a slow skin into a strong colony, and the double king bee colony is much more troublesome than the single king bee colony in the prevention of pests and diseases.
3. Formation method.
The double queen group of Italian bees is divided into the double king group of the nest box and the double king group of the relay box, in which the double king group of the nest box separates the two queens on both sides of the nest box with a vertical partition, and the double king group of the relay box separates the two queens in the nest box and the relay box with a flat partition, the method is to first confuse the group taste of the two groups of bees and then form a double king group, and the new queen bee and the old queen of the same nest can also be used to form a double queen group.
4. Precautions.
1. The advantage of the double queen of the Italian bee is that the reproduction speed is fast, the double king group can be formed in early spring to quickly recover the group potential, and the double king group can also be formed in the autumn breeding period to quickly cultivate overwintering bees.
2. The disadvantage of the double queen of the Italian bee is that it is easy to have bee fever, because the feeding power of the worker bees in the double king group is more likely to be excessive, so the double king group should be split and the production group should be formed during the large honey flow period.
3. It is actually difficult for the double king of Italian bees to develop into a strong group. For example, when the nectar source is abundant, the bee colony may be full of spleen, and when the nectar source is scarce, it will not play the role of double king reproduction at all.

The bees in the Italian bees are all raised by humans, and there are beekeeping methods of the elder brothers, although the bee species are different, but the basic characteristics and beekeeping methods are similar. Some people who breed bees have not been exposed to bees, and they may think that bees are alien species, which is very different. In fact, if you have been in contact with and understood the two bee species, you will find that they are the same lovely bees, and the breeding technology can learn from each other and improve together.

Royal jelly is a special milky plasma substance secreted by the royal jelly gland in the head of the worker bee, which is used to feed the queen bee and larvae.
However, if they are all pure royal jelly, they all have many benefits for the body, and the manuscript is not distinguished by different origins.

Generally speaking, local princes are adaptable, and black is the majority. Worker bees are black and white, and it is better to say that it is white than silver-gray. There is also black and yellow. The black and yellow ones are larger and have slightly better gathering power, and they are both black kings.

How can there be the best in each way?

Meiyi The descendants of Italian bees introduced in the United States. The honey yield is high, it can maintain a strong group, and the disease resistance is strong.
National Bee 213 Scientific and Technological Achievements of the Ministry of Agriculture. The lineage of 2 Italian bee inbred lines and 1 card bee inbred line, with strong collection power. Queen bees come in two body colors:
One is darker and the other is yellowish. The darker ones are suitable for raising in the north.
Black Triple Crossing A newly bred honey high-yielding triple cross containing three black bee bell bloodlines. The collection power is particularly strong, and the honey production is 50% higher than that of the local Italian bee. Queen bees, worker bees, and drones are all black. It is suitable for breeding in northern regions.
Huangshan No. 1 Scientific and Technological Achievements of the Ministry of Agriculture. 4 inbred lines and 1 inbred line. Slurry and honey double high-yield multivariate triple crossing.
The queen bee is yellow in color and usually has a black tail tip. Worker bees are basically yellow. The drone's body color resembles that of the Italian bee.
It can be raised all over the country.
Kayi Huangshan No. 2 Black tail yellow king, black honey high yield, average pulp yield, strong fecundity, strong disease resistance, heat resistance, use of sporadic honey sources.
Kayi Huangshan Black King honey has high yield and low consumption, strong disease resistance, strong fecundity, cold resistance, and strong ability to use sporadic nectar sources.
The king of the black flower king of Huangshan in Kayi combines the high yield performance of "Huangshan No. 2" and "Huangshan Black King", with outstanding honey yield, large worker bees, heat resistance, and strong swarming.
Kayi Huangshan Honey King Honey has high yield, strong fecundity, strong disease resistance, relatively cold resistance, heat resistance, and the use of sporadic nectar sources.
Baishan No. 6 has strong fecundity, high honey production, saving feed, and strong disease resistance.
Huanghuan won the third prize of the Provincial Science and Technology Progress Award, using high-tech to breed honey slurry high-yield bees.
Northeast black bee is safe to overwinter, resistant to low temperature, strong resistance to disease and stress, saves feed, reproduces quickly in early spring, maintains a large swarm, has strong collection ability, stable traits, and high honey production.
Guizhou Nayong Bee Real Earth Honey The queen bee of their cooperative. >>>More
The queen bee is responsible for laying eggs, the drone is responsible for mating with the new queen, and the worker bee is responsible for laboring.
Royal jelly is a milky substance secreted in the royal jelly glands of worker bees, mainly as food for queen bees, containing hundreds of nutrients and high nutritional value.
The shelf life of royal jelly is that the lower the storage temperature, the longer the shelf life, there are bubbles indicating that it has begun to deteriorate, don't drink it and throw it away, some beekeepers are irresponsible, royal jelly must be frozen at low temperature, can not be placed at room temperature for a long time, placed at room temperature generally can not exceed 12 hours; This is the difference between famous brand manufacturers and selling bulk honey, if you buy the royal jelly in the regular brand monopoly, the waiter will definitely let you freeze and store, and the beekeepers because they do not have a good storage environment, some in the mountains can not carry refrigeration equipment, so a large part of their royal jelly nutrients are lost, and they are not willing to tell consumers about frozen storage, because if you tell, consumers are very likely to associate with their storage conditions, so as to have doubts about the quality of the product. Therefore, beekeepers say that it can be stored for a long time at room temperature, and their practice is extremely irresponsible, so when friends buy things, please keep your eyes open, think more, and try to buy brand products.
Personally, I think it's better to look at lop-eared rabbits.
