Two new hives installed 5.26 and fed constantly since. On Sunday I had 7 frames drawn with capped brood, nice patterns and lots of bees coming and going. I added second deeps to both hives and yesterday opened the entrance reducers to the larger opening. This morning (lots of rain) there are dead bees everywhere (in grass in front of hive, on bottom board and larva are being dragged out of the hive. Yesterday I noticed workers dragging drones out. This looks real bad to me . . .what is going on? I have to leave for two weeks for my mother's funeral in California. (I'm in NY)
Thanks for any help.
