Method for organizing new bee colony by utilizing adjustable mating box and adjustable mating box

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for organizing a new bee colony by utilizing an adjustable mating box and the adjustable mating box and belongs to the field of bee colony breeding equipment. In theprocess of generating an inseminated queen bee through the mating box, a virgin queen bee is separately stored in an independent vessel according to the discharge time of the virgin queen bee; according to the specifications of honeycombs in different beehives, the honeycombs are put into the mating box, wherein the mating box contains a corresponding number of bees belonging to the honeycombs; the bee colony in the mating box stays in a queen-free period for a certain time, and after the bee colony pass through the queen-free period, the mating box is adjusted to a new place to enable the bees to recognize nests again; the virgin queen bee in the independent vessel is put into the mating box to form a new bee colony; after mating of the new bee colony is successful, the honeycombs are moved into a common beehive; the mating box is removed. According to the method for organizing the new bee colony by utilizing the adjustable mating box, the bee colony consisting of a small number of bees can be controlled to recognize the nests and the queen bee again, correspondingly the new bee colony is organized, and the working quality of the bee colony is improved. In addition, the original bee colony is still maintained in a normal working environment, and the yield of honey is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for organizing new bee colonies by using a controllable mating box and the controllable mating box; it belongs to the field of bee colony breeding equipment. Background technique [0002] Honey bee is a kind of social insect, which is composed of queen bee, worker bee and drone bee. It plays an important role in ecological effect and economic benefit. In the breeding season, whether the queen bee mating is successful or not determines the strength and decline of the bee colony, and the bee mating box emerges as the times require, which is a beehive in which some worker bees assist the virgin queen bee to complete the mating. At present, the commonly used mating boxes are mostly refitted from common beehives. Generally, common beehives are divided into 2-4 casings, and the hive door is opened on the back. [0003] The conditions for honeybees to produce natural bees are sufficient honey storage in the bee colony, high ...

Problems solved by technology

At this time, there will often be queen bee colonies in the bee colony. The current technical means to relieve the heat of bee separation is only to continuously destroy the natural queen bees in the colony. , leading to the advance of bee colony separation time; ineffective use of idle worker bees, which reduces the production performance of bee colonies

The current method of bee separation is relatively simple, and the new queen bee is directly put into the original bee colony to adapt; this method is simple and rough, which is not conducive to bee separation

[0004] The existing mating box has the following deficiencies. 1. The honeybee frame determines the specifications of the beehive, so the internal volume of the existing mating box is fixed. It can be used universally for Italian bees that have formed a breeding standard, but for those whose standards are not uniform There is great inconvenience to the bee

2. There is no controllable hive door baffle, the number of bees leaving the hive cannot be controlled, and the number of bees returning to the hive per unit time after the mating group is organized is too large, and it is necessary to replenish worker bees to feed the queen bee many times. If the mating boxes are formed, the distance between their nest doors is too close, which may easily cause the queen bee to get lost in the nest, resulting in the failure of the virgin queen bee to mate.

4. Excessive volume in the box requires more worker bees to maintain, resulting in waste of bee resources

5. Large, bulky and inconvenient to move

Therefore, there is above-mentioned problem in existing mating box, has influenced the development and utilization to honeybee economic performance
