Here are a few photos. Hive one (first 2 pics) are Olivarez Italians. The Second Set are NWC. Notice the NWC started in the middle which caused the sugar to spill. Next time i will use more layersof paper. Also this Hive has a cluster that goes all the way to the bottom board in a 2 story deep.

Enjoy!

Joe,
Thanks for the photos. They look to have come through the winter well. Good luck this spring.

Joe:

The Italians look strong. You looking to split them? Are they queens from last season? From a package? When were the pics taken?

The Italians were headed by a 2007 queen and the photo was taken yesterday afternoon. That hive was from 2 summer splits that I wasnt sure would make it through winter so I combined them. Yep I think I will split them. At this time growth is still my number 1 focus. I will reply to that email right now.
