I'm by you, and it was freaking cold last night. I went to Kroger late last night and the blast hit me so hard. I asked my self how can bees survive nights like tonight.

Hey penzi! Welcome to bee source. Lots of good info here.

I live in lexington KY, but have spent all my summer months since child hood living in crystal beach Ontario. I'd say your about 10 miles...

If I'm not suppose to split my first nuc, what are you supposed to do when both of your bodies are full of brood?

I'm told bees like to build up so it would make sense to use 8 frames

Well walter t kelly does provide a medium nuc, but there not available til may 4th :( is this normal or to late in the season.

People are saying go with all mediums to start out with, and I want do this but I saw that places are selling their nucs but their frames won't fit my mediums. So Will i have to start out with a deep...

When do you know it's time to split?

I'm buying my first hive with a nuc, how many times should I split them to keep them from swarming?

Playing call of duty black ops. Someone I was playing with talked about his hive and I've been researching since. We will know if I have what it takes here in a couple months.

I'm new to this, but I have to ask, what is it like to get stung that much at one time?

That's good to know.

1) I found the two types of flowers I want to put in my garden. These flowers are great and the best for honey bees when it comes to producing all the goodies. My question now is, will it draw...

Well I have walter Kelly next door to me so I'm going with their nucs.

I'm going with a Russian and a hybrid walter Kelly came up with.

Fair enough

Sounds like a great idea, so why don't more people do this?

Why do people make feeding bees sound like such a daunting task?

Just curios but why can't I buy a nuc and a package and remove the queen from the package and combine the two into 2 8 frames bodies?

Echium vulgare :) your welcome guys

Any thought on this?

Yes I was wondering when I should order bees. I have walter Kelly co about hour and half from me. Dadant co about 30 min from me. So I'm glad two good companies are with in a drive for me. Now for...
