Family-trutivky not so rare in our lives Beekeeping.
Many beekeepers, including the author of this article, caught in a difficult situation, when suddenly exhibited unusual or even sat in the bee brood humpback cells.
Family-trutivky are of two types:
- When the old queen bee because of illness or another reason to delay starting unfertilized eggs.
moreover, humpback brood can be found in both cells trutnёvyh, and a bee. This species is rare.
Family shortcomings advance notice of the uterus and makes it lay fistula and hold matochniki “quiet” change uterus, still in the nest are young larvae.
Fix this trutovochnu family is easy: enough to remove the uterus, and give the family another, quality.
- Many unexpected concerns arise, bdzholosim'yi when for some reason lost queen bee, but no bee brood nest, and the family is unable to bring the uterus. It was then and there bees trutivky.
Bee-trutivka – This worker bee, which acquired the ability to delay unfertilized eggs, including developing small drones.
The point is, that bees in nursing bezmatochniy family as a result of abundant food protein food accumulate excess reserves, and in the body start functioning ovaries.

How did this happen, that the bee community, where, seemingly, everything is, and suddenly – family condemned to death?
It could happen, example, family of barren womb, which did not return flight from marriage.
Humpback brood
Then worker bees procreation instinct manifests.
Through 3-4 days after the abandonment egg in small tubes begin to appear unfertilized eggs.
More than two weeks is, before trutivka-bee starts laying eggs in the bee cells.
It would, beekeepers have enough time, to detect loss of uterus. But is not that simple.
Barren womb difficult to detect, as it is shallow, pops Cell, hidden in a mass of bees, and the weather is not always possible to keep the hive open long.

At dawn you can see good and postponed eggs, standing upright.

1. Swap saving and safe family. For this fine day with normal bdzholosim'yi remove the uterus in the box, and with one frame of brood nest move from family-trutivky.
Then hives swap. Return to mining bees find their uterus in cell, treat it friendly.
Brood maternal family also need to educate. Bees minority of saving family, and they pose no threat.
Through 1-2 day queen of cells produced. Bereaved family of the late afternoon on the day of permutations hives can give spare uterus, and in its absence the frame with eggs and young larvae. Now this is a family-teacher
2. In the hive, which houses a good family of medium strength, put the building closed notch.
Lower and enclosure separated nadstavlyayut metal grid.
Then here are rearranged within the family-trutivky, puts wadding, jack and carefully uteplyuyetsya.
In this state, the family must endure two days.
Then you can remove the grid.

This also allowed fruitful womb. Insulator close, that he has not penetrated bees, and put in the center of the nest saving family.
uterus, ward young bees, emanating from cells, begins laying eggs. Royal substance spreads throughout the hive.
During this period, the insulator removed, and the scope of the queen and brood carefully put in its place.
Beehive closed, and two or three day family does not worry, not to provoke an attack of bees on the uterus trutivok.
Later the family should give scope to land, and the family will be actively developed;
5. Finally, the easiest way. It will be useful if, when otrutnovila weak family.
In the evening, take the family away from the hives trutivku, shake all bees in the grass, hive clean the warehouse.
