ROBERT S.

I received unexpected help with decisions I am making for the next few months. I am very grateful for that help. Help as in replacing queens, and splitting hives in respone to having a weak hive. I now have a very strong hive and a very weak one. I liked the idea of combining two hives to let the bees kill the queens instead of me trying to locate them myself.

Hi Robert, we were happy to help you. Thank you for attending our new 201 class!

I would love to see examples of what is a healthy hive or normal and compare it to what is an unhealthy hive or abnormal. That would inform me what I’m looking for and what I’m looking at. Then I would know when everything is fine and I don’t have to worry. Versus when there’s a problem. But as an inexperienced bee keeper, I would not know what is normal and what is a problem.
