swarms and queen cells

[JD]

I am in southern MD, am I the only one that is chasing swarms, fighting to make splits and have gone from 7 hives to 16 and my partner has gone from 3 to 8 in two weeks and we lost one swarm at his place for sure and not sure but I know I lost two.

I do not know if I am coming or going and this is my second year.

Aslo got my 4th and 5th sting ever. 4th one on middle finger, it is fine.
5th was on top of left hand. well look at the pic taken this morning. ok never mind about the picture, don't know how to post but my hand looks like Mickey Mouse's hand and is HOT and HURTS

some stings are worse than others. Benadryl and Predisone (perscription) help.
