Introducing new queens with Michael Palmer at his cell building yard in Vermont. This is a video I put together after returning from my week spent in Vermont. It covers the two types of introduction of queens for various different reasons but concentrated more on the use of push in cages that will give more of a guarantee of acceptance each time! These are pretty standard methods used in beekeeping and if instigated properly, theres very little rejection or further intervention needed apart from just releasing the queen. Very few times do you get a queen rejected. If so, theres usually other issues in the colony like another recently hatched Virgin queen!
