In this segment of the YouTube video, Laurence Edwards explains that in mid‑May he performed a double Demaray split on a beehive. He removed a 14 × 12 in. National Deep box, placed it on top of the existing hive, added two additional National Deep boxes, installed a queen excluder, introduced a new queen along with a frame of brood, and described the resulting colony as a "monster" Demaray split. The passage serves as a concise instructional demonstration of a large‑scale colony split technique.
