This video will show you how to inspect a hive after transferring from a nuc. Follow along with Cora (age 10) as she learns how to check for the presence of a queen, and how to identify things like brood, honey cells, nectar, and larvae!
Inspecting your nuc isn't a scary thing at all, so don't be afraid to get in there and discover what your bees have been up to! This is Cora's first hive, and she could'n't be more excited. If you're a kid like Cora, or an adult beginner, we'll help you learn how to inspect a nuc.

There are a lot of well deserved compliments to Cora here and I want to give props to the dad. He is so patient and helpful. He is engaging his daughter in his passion and spending time with her. There are so many good things about this that will strengthen their relationship. Also it sounds like the mum is filming, so a family activity. What a joy to behold.

I came across your channel as a newbee and I am gearing up for my very first year. I am beyond excited to start and am trying to gather up as much information as I can before my bees arrive. Cora, you are asking every question I have while watching these videos. Mom and dad, you do such an amazing job teaching her along with me as well. Everything is explained so easily and to the point. These demonstration videos are going to help me so much ( I am a vizual learner). I'm from Northwest Illinois, so I will have to adjust to a different climate than you, but I am fully enjoying the learning aspect right along with Cora. Thank you to you and your entire family!!

At 8:06 you say “this is not normal and we’ll have to do something about this” wrt the offset comb. Is there a subsequent video showing what you did about it? This is GREAT! I appreciate the work y’all are doing to show us how!

First of all, what a wholesome little series of videos! Second, thank you so much for the information your and your daughter are giving out in such a simply explained way! I know this video is a year old but I’m new to beekeeping by chance and this step by step has helped me feel so much better. Thank you and Cora!

Just found this video series because I was hunting down an easy to learn way to do my first hive inspection. Could not have found a better set of videos. I have been nervous about what I was supposed to be doing but honestly Cora and her lovely demeanour and questions makes me feel a lot more confident and I appreciate the way you guided her through the inspection in such a clear way. This is awesome.

You can do it! Sure, there's always the possibility of making a mistake, but as long as you're truly trying your best to care for the bees, I think your intuition will kick in and it'll be great! Don't worry about messing up the install. You got this!

@@CentralBeekeepersSupply when I installed them the frames had wax buildup on the edges of the frames and I didn’t know to scrape them clean so after I put them in the 9th frame was super tight. I’m using frame feeders
