A very busy Bee Season

So far I have pulled three supers of honey, added a total of 6 supers to my hives, built 3x new hives, added two NUC's to the Apiary, and one hive of Trap out bees from the Ballinger Academy. The trapout is not finished and the capture box is again being worked by the bees , need to add another frame of brood to it.

The Scout hives are both working well, and we should see good growth soon from the 10 frame hive. The pkg we installed last weekend , so will take a bit longer.

Pics soon

April , booming begining.

The spring has been a boomer of a season, the mild winter moved right on into an Indian summer, temps in 70's and 80's mid March, and plenty of pollen and nectar. All hives have been growing, but last weekend when deciding to do a split we discovered a queenless hive, one of my Waynes bee hives had no new brood or eggs and a capped queen cell. Either they swarmed, or we damaged her on our last inspection. No matter, the bees are still working the hive well, and soon there will be a new queen. All hives already have a new super on. I also have a nuc on order for the 14th.
