Problems with a cut out hive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[backyard warrior]

In June i did a cut out removal and found the queen then marked her. Since then they have made two more queens for a total of 3. None of the queens have been producing eggs, larve or brood. I have a hive of bees with a queen and none of the brood.  I talked to Bjourn and he told me to take 3 full frames of brood and introduce a new queen to the hive.  I think he has a good idea and i was wondering what anyone else had in mind to get me some young bees for winter.

I think Bjourn is right.   The only other thing you can do is to combine them with another hive.

can you still find a queen?  i think your weather is not so different from mine?  i might be a little colder in the dead of winter.....

my bees are already reducing the amount of brood in the hive.  the weather is unseasonably warm, but the short days begin to shut them down.

if you can find a queen, you might pull it off.  i don't know how many hives you have, but if you were going to pull 3 frames of brood, i'd pull one from each hive and not 3 from the same hive. 

at this time of the year i think i'd lean toward combining.  it's about time to be out of the hives and requeening requires that you get in there and check to make sure all has gone well.
