Well I put my Flow Frames on this afternoon and in less that an hour they are all over it. Looking in it just before dark, I counted 20+ bees in side the cells and 100s in the window and rear view window

LOL ok no big deal :slight_smile: I did take all the comb I had taken off the hive and followed your lead but a little differnt. I rubbed it all over the frames. I think it helped.

BTW :slight_smile: seeing a lot more Butt’s in the view window. i.e. a lot more bee’s with here heads deep in the flow frame. I can see some evidence of them sealing the cracks.

Nice, they haven’t been in the hive that long have they? I can’t remember did you start with a Nuc or a package?

Sleuthing through his profile, I see that he got a 5-frame nucleus from Beeweaver in Dallas. He installed it on March 10th and added a second brood box around a month later. Seems like these are VERY hard-working girls! :blush:

Hi all,
I enjoy reading and review all the posts on this site however I have a concern. I noticed that on several occasions some posts have contained information and pictures from other sites/books. I feel that if people are going do this a reference to the owner should also be added to the post for copyright reasons. It really is easy to see where informatiom is obtained from just be honest and reference.
