Howdy Adrian........
Just thought I'd send you a note to see how your bees were wintering now that its almost feb 1??
I've been re-reading some of the overwintering threads and This IS the time of the year that
the proof is in the pudding....I really liked the nuc packs that you are using and consider it a good
system,,and may try it next year.....and wondered if you brought any of them inside this late winter?
Also wondered if you had any of the dark bee blood that seems tto do better in the winters...
First week of april I'll pick up 12 packages from Wolfs,,They are italian and buckfast cross I believe
and am thinking of re-queening some at some point to NWC or something like that and see if
they'll make it through next winter...always glad to read your posts--
