I created four nuc's 3 weeks ago using 4 frames of brood and one frame of foundation (walk-away). I checked after 7 days and found queen cells, so all was good. I got home from work on day 20 and found a 2-3 lbs swarm. Day 22 I found another 3 lbs swarm, so it appears I started off with too many frames. The weather the last week has been very rainy and cool, so I doubt the queens got mated
Anyone here ever see nuc's swarm with vigin queens?
I was planning to check on these nuc on day 28 to see if the queen was laying...
Thanks,
Mike
