I moved my hives from my back yard across the driveway about 70 ft . I moved two nukes last evening, single deep 10 frames, and my April packages double deep 10 frames before they got moving this morning. I have one nuke doing poorly so I put it where the best package had been in hopes the odd straggler might help it out.
I leaned sheets of plywood in front of the colonies to force the bees to reorient when they came out of the hive. Now some six hours later, I have a mini swarm where each hive used to be, and the small nuke is covered in bees.
Anything I can do , or do I just hope they sort it out?
thanks
