Installed a 5 frame nuc in 10 frame deep at the start of June. I put an inner cover with a top entrance and then the ceracell feeder Filled with sugar syrup.
The first day or two it looked like they found it and would see the odd bee in there taking some syrup.
But last 2 weeks not a drop.
I would assume this is a good thing. Will they stop taking syrup if enough Nectar is comming in ?
I was told by the beekeeper I bought the nuc off to feed them to as soon as I hived them to build comb.
There seems to be a ton of activity at the hive entrance.
Should I remove the feeder ?
