Nice photos. I have a question though. I have bees coming this weekend and have my hives already situated on blocks. I will be using all mediums and just have one medium in place for the package of bees (each hive). I notice you used two to start with. Is this necessary? I was under the impression that one medium was enough to start with. It's coming down to the wire now and I starting to wonder if I've got everything ready.
Thanks

Rottybee im also getting a package this saturday and im starting them in one Deep Hive body! What you do is that you install them in one box and when they have atleast 7 frames drawn out of 10 you rotate the outter frames in one and add a box! Thats exactly how i was told by several and thats how i will be doing mine! Good Luck and tell me how everything goes. Also if you want to know how long it takes to draw out the frames, i was told approx 4-5 weeks and thats all depending on the bees of course!
