Pour les apiculteurs qui n'utilisent qu'une chambre à couvain pendant tout l'été - j'en connais et des meilleurs - une chambre à couvain double, constituée de hausse standard, constituerais sans doute une amélioration notable. L'espace représentée par deux hausses 2/3, qui correspond à peu près à celle de l'unique hausse «jumbo», est suffisante pour recevoir la ponte maximale d'une bonne reine. 1, record 2, French, - chambre%20%C3%A0%20couvain%20double

Utilización de doble cámara de cría.

El nido de cría es la parte interior de la colmena donde se desarrolla la cría. [...] Es natural que la colonia cuando se la deja en dos o tres alzas tenga un desplazamiento del nido de cría hacia la parte superior durante la invernada, también podemos decir que es natural que el nido baje a la cámara de cría durante la primavera y verano, por cuestiones de regulación térmica, en las colmenas con piquera inferior y panales con exposición en frío. 2, record 3, Spanish, - nido%20de%20cr%C3%ADa
