weak hive, medium hive, strong hive (long)

I made some metal "address" markers for my hives to help cut down on drifting. I dont know if they work or not but it was fun I also like your hive colors Ross, they look great.

How far apart should they be kept to cut down on the robbing?

I've seen hives right up against each other that didn't have a problem I've seen then a couple of feet apart and they did have a problem. I moved them another couple of feed apart and the problem went away. It depends on the bees, the flow, etc.
