Hello all!
I'm excited to be here. My husband and I got our first 3 hives this March. So far we are loving it. I'm thrilled to have found a fine group of people to talk bees with. Thanks for having me!

It was pretty funny my first year, my packages did real well, and I discovered I did not have any supers yet, and needed them ASAP. Then a few years later I split 2 hives, and discovered I need a few extra deeps, so I could switch out deep boxes and clean up some that were on the hives. Oh, and stick with one company for your boxes and frames, they all make them a little different. I don't know if anyone gave me that advice, and I didn't follow it, but I've learned the hard way. I'll probably just use the one companies boxes for swarm traps, as a LOT of the wood has warped.
