Norfolk Honey -The food of Kings
UEA apiary
This apiary continued to get vandalized in the winter and had to be abandoned.
There are two hives at my Bluebell road apiary. One hive I took there earlier in the year from the Old Costessy apiary. I moved them because the bees were less easy to handle than the other bees in Old Costessy. Originally these bees were a swarm collected last year. On inspection at the start of August the bees were beginning a swarm procedure and had made one large queen cell. I moved the queen into another hive and left the queen cell and most of the bees in the original hive. Now there is a new laying queen in the original brood box.
