Product: Splitting Hives & Rearing Queens: Growing & Managing Your Small Apiary
From splitting a hive to rearing your own queens from your own beestock, Dr. Hébert teaches you all you need to know to grow and manage the population of your small apiary. 
 
Of course, having the knowledge is one thing, but having the physical skill is quite another. So you will also learn how to develop the physical skill needed to put your new found knowledge into practice. 
 
With color close up photographs you will learn how to tell which larvae are suitable for making queens and which ones aren't. Then you will learn how to develop the physical skill to graft them. 
 
Believe it or not, grafting larvae is not only the simplest and most efficient means of rearing multiple queens anyone has come up with to date, it is also a surprisingly simple skill to learn. If you can write with a pen and paper, you're practically already there. 
 
Finally, you'll be given the details of how to make the equipment and tools necessary to the task (should you opt to do so over buying them). 
 
In short, if you're a backyard/hobbyist beekeeper and you want to grow and manage the population of your apiary, "Splitting Hives & Rearing Queens" is all you need to get started.
