    Hive for sale

    FYI VEG The price depends on how many you want. I admit I am slow to reply as running the number of hives that I do, does not leave a lot of time to answer. A PM can get a discount from me. They are all off to an auction soon so grab them while you can, I need the space. Regards Mike Auction...

    Help. Woodpeckers?

    Yes I agree, Woodpeckers usually go for the handholds on hives and they always seem to manage to get through close to the brood. I cover my hives with old cherry nets, just as good as wire netting and take up less room than wire netting when they are taken off in the spring. Regards Mike

    Homemade skep?

    Actually, a day course can be a great day out. John Hamer at Blackhorse apiaries, Woking usually does a good one. I went a couple of years ago to one at Johns and completed a large skep which i routinely use when collecting swarms. He also had bees permanently in skeps at his teaching apiary...

    Starting again with Langstroths

    Hi Subboteo Going over to Langstroth Is your best move. I changed over last year nearly 200 hives. Could not go to Poly because of cost. Best thing is to bring over a load in a container, I brought over a 20 foot container full of kit. Regards Mike
