Good morning y’all, I’m new to bee keeping and have a question hopefully I can get advice, suggestions and comments.
I ordered a pack of bees from “Fat and they should arrive in March.
My question is once I put them in their brood box should I close the entrance? They’ll have a top feed with syrup. I’ve read somewhere that it keeps them from swarming and promotes growth.
Does anyone do this or have experience with this?
Thanks
Ray
