Artificial batch hatching method for queen apis cerana/apis mellifera

Abstract

The invention provides an artificial batch hatching method for queen apis cerana/apis mellifera. The method comprises the following steps of: 1) artificially transferring bees: fixing a queen cell on a queen breeding frame and putting the queen cell into a queen breeding group; 2) taking out the queen cell from the queen breeding frame after the queen cell is covered, putting the queen cell into a queen cell protection cover, marking covering time on the queen cell protection cover by using a marking pen, marking a body position of a queen bee by using the marking pen before the queen cell is put into a constant-temperature and constant-humidity incubator, putting the queen cell into the constant-temperature and constant-humidity incubator, and setting a temperature to be 34-35 DEG C and a humidity to be 60-80% RH; 3) after 12 hours, taking out the queen cell, marking the body position of the queen bee again, and continuously putting the queen cell into the constant-temperature and constant-humidity incubator for incubation; and 4) taking out the queen cell from the constant-temperature and constant-humidity incubator and implanting the queen cell into a corresponding number of queen-free colonies after the queen cell is hatched to the seventh day, and hatching until the queen bee is taken out of the queen cell. The artificial batch hatching method shortens a queen breeding period, increases the queen bee breeding number and realizes mass queen bee breeding. Physiological physique, a biological habit, a subsequent development period and the daily egg laying amount of the queen bee hatched according to the method all meet swarm development requirements.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of queen bee artificial cultivation, and relates to a method for artificial batch incubation of Chinese / Italian bee queen bees. Background technique [0002] The queen bee is a kind of Hymenoptera and Apiaceae. The queen bee is also called "mother bee", "queen bee" and "female bee". It is a female bee with fully developed reproductive organs and developed from fertilized eggs. Usually there is only 1 per colony. The body is 1 / 3 longer than the worker bee, the abdomen is longer, with pincers at the end, no wax glands under the abdomen, and the wings only cover half of the abdomen. Queen bee in different physiological states, the composition and content of queen bee information released are obviously different. The feet are not as thick as worker bees, and there is no pollen basket on the hind feet, which can attract bees. The life span of the queen bee is 3-5 years. Due to the gradual decline in reproduct...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the main ways of producing queen bees in China are as follows: large-scale bee farms mostly use natural breeding and hatching of bee colonies after artificial insect transfer, small-scale bee farms mostly use bee colonies to quickly make queen bee colonies for natural incubation, amateur beekeepers basically rely on bee colonies Natural bee segregation or bee swarm natural queen bee separation, queen bee breeding technology lacks innovation, stagnates, and is difficult to mass-produce
