Hello all
Im a rookie beekeeper of about a year , I live in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mtns of California. Been very warm here & bees are very busy ,I was told to split my hive so they didnt swarm , never done this before but I did it anyway. I am very nervous that I dont see bees coming and going from the new hive , it has only been a few days . Am I just paranoid ? I have lost sleep over this split , read what I was supposed to do , opened the hive , got intimadated with all I was looking at and for . Forgot most of what I was looking for in the process . I think I made a bunch of mistakes.
Thanks
Kevin
