Got my second swarm today bringing me up to 5 hives. Sorry, always forget to take pictures. Pretty large swarm filled up a deep, it was hanging off an oak tree.

I would think if there is honey in the supers then they have food. But if you do put syrup on them, with the supers still on, they are going to store it right along with the honey found this out he...

somdbeekeeper.com has several interviews with Michael Bush, John Seaborn, FatBeeMan and a lot more but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

That colony is gone there were a lot of problems, the two biggest problems were the wax moths and me. This was a Nuc from around April, I transferred it to a deep hive body. A couple weeks later I...

Here is a couple of my frames.

Wax moth. Just had this happen. I didn't catch it in time and my bees left. I'd pull any frames that have larvae or tunneling and freeze. If the hive is small transferring to a nuc would be a good...
