In my second queen rearing podcast I discuss a very simple technique of creating new queens from an existing hive that has thrown up queen cells. I call it the "Two Nucs" method of queen rearing, a method that has been in use by beekeepers for many years and one that can create many new colonies over the course of a season. No complicated equipment is required just a couple of spare nuc boxes. If you would like to get early access to my weekly podcast please check out my support page www.patreon.com/norfolkhoney I use a range of reference material including a few very good books, if you'd like to see the queen rearing books I use, check out my reading list on my website www.norfolk-honey.co.uk/readinglist. Possibly one of the best sources of accurate beekeeping information currently available on the internet is a website managed by Roger Patterson here in the UK, originally set up by a beekeeper called Dave Cushman. www.dave-cushman.net
