Did These Walk-Away Splits Succeed? (Out Yard Check)

Today I’m back in the out yards to check on two walk-away splits and find out if they actually made queens… or failed. It’s been long enough for emergence and early development, so this is the moment of truth. I’ll go frame by frame through the nucs to look for signs of success—signs of emergency cells emerged, activity, and whether things are progressing the way they should. Then I head over to Green Acres yard to follow up on a hive that requeened, but was not laying yet. We’ll see if she’s turned the corner or if there’s still a problem. If you’ve ever made walk-away splits or dealt with early spring requeening, this is where things either come together… or fall apart. 2026 Channel Supporters: 🐝HiveAlive: Feed Supplement, Pollen Patties, Fondant and EZ feed bags: https://usa.hivealivebees.com?sca_ref...
