Recording - KBA April Field Day 2020 - Splits using OTS Queen Rearing

I am happy to share that even though we were not able to hold a field day, we did compile a video for you on OTS queen rearing so that you can follow along on how to do splits on your hives to prevent swarming, increase your bee population, reduce mites, and/or run for honey!

The video is available on youtube under our Kentuckiana Beekeepers channel.

For May, we are looking into providing a live video mentoring session. We will keep you posted as we figure it out! Happy beekeeping and stay safe and well!

We are an active local beekeeping community hosting public educational events and hands-on field days since 1976. The Louisville, Kentucky metro area and surrounding counties are full of beekeepers! You may even have one living on your street, keeping bees in their backyard, without even knowing it. Often quirky, sometimes funny, but always interesting, the urban beekeeper loves to share knowledge on the life and benefits of honeybees and the challenging yet entertaining hobby of being a beekeeper.
