Queen marking

May 21, 2023/ Jennifer Berry

I’m throwing this photo up for folks in the Marin beekeeper’s club. Their email server is finicky about attachments, and I want to show how to properly hold a queen for marking

She’ll wiggle, so it helps if you use your middle finger to give her a place to put her legs. This helps calm her.
