Hive Check
Hive 1
Took a peep in there. Couldn’t find the queen, but did see young larve so I’m assuming all is well. Added syrup as needed.
Hive 2
All is well – lots of bees in this one – about 8 frames worth. They had eaten the feeder dry. Added more syrup and a beetle eater. Saw one small hive beetle.
Hive 3
No sign of queen yet, queen cells are still intact so it should be any day now. Topped off syrup and added a beetle eater.
Hive 4
This is by far the strongest hive of the 5. No changes needed.
Nuc 1
Queen cells were open, although I didn’t see her and no sign of eggs yet. Topped off with syrup and megabee.
