1, are the bees making honey or are they slow due to the rain

2, how many suppers do you have on

3, are you behind in getting honey

Spring started slow with the cold and lots of rain. Went out to the hives this morning and 3 of the 4 are ready to start supering! All these hives were new 2lb. packages this spring.
We might be a little slow but things for me seem to be going OK!
