Well, anyone else getting their bees pushed back? Local bee place here says they've pushed the pickup date back to the first weekend of May! Says they have them in overwintering mode still as the area plants have not started blooming yet. Said if I received them now I would have to supplement with feed and may even lose them. Said all the people receiving bees right now are going to regret it.
It seems to make some sense to me, but I thought this sort of thing is typical? ...to have to supplement a new colony in a new home, etc? Sure, it will give me more time to make my hive equipment, but I was looking forward to getting my bees! AGH!!!
