newbeek hear,cot a sworm 3 days ago,a huge sworm in 3 bxs,while seting up to put in hive deep they started to excape from the boxes(crapy tape job)sow i just dumped the bxs in with only 6 drawn frames,tonight i peeked into the hive with a small flashlight and saw come from the lid down into the spacess between the frames it goes the length of the lid and about 5.5" down int and between the frames.remember this swarm was huge,and there are sow meny bees i dought ida ben abble to get them all in there with all the frames in the box allready.i plan on going in on sunday,but at this rate of comb production,thers gona be a mess for shure.my thought was to split them with a bot queen. thease are my 1st bees,and being new at this i thought 2 hives would be better for me to handle.i reely dont wanta mess up.ive waited a long time to katch a sworm to get started.
