Hi Watchdog2020.
I live in Elmira (Water Street, not far from Walnut Street bridge)
Where did you buy your nucs?
I've got one hive from a cutout I did in the wal of a house here in town, and will likely have another form a trapout soon.
I don't have great hopes for the survivla of these colonies as there is not much time to build up honey reserves before winter.
If there is someone local to buy from, I'd like to contact them regarding getting some nucs next spring.
Pleas PM me or give me a call @ 607 734-2429
Thanks,
Craig
