When то split/splitting and how то split/splitting from the main families.
In early May, we begin to make layers from the main families. It will depend on the weather, on the strength of the families, on the amount of food in the families. There should be at least 8 brood frames in families. If more, then it's good. As soon as all the conditions are met, then you can start making layering. We transfer two frames with closed brood at the exit and two feed frames into the layer. The fifth frame of being with water in it. Flight bees will fly from the layer, so the layer is well insulated. In the main family, instead of four frames transferred to layering, we put four frames of land. The main family displays a fistulous uterus.
