unless anyone wants to swap 3x paynes used for some maismore kit?

all good info thanks..... i currently have 3 x Paynes Nucs, so i think i will cut feeders out or block then try there rapid feeders. but i think a purchase of 3 x maismores might be sneaking into workshop!

yep, the feeder is even less useful as i use 14 x 12 frames so i can only fill it so far, its just messy and irritating, considering just chopping it out and making extra space for another frame or 2

Paynes or Maisemores Poly Nuc I like the thickness of the Paynes poly nun but hate the feeder. considering at the maisemores option anyone got any pros and Cons i should consider?

Yep.... I am the same... Says revived data but nothing showing. I like the idea though, syncing could be easier, adding unique ids on both dives is is hardly time saving.. Great start would be great if it improves

Does anyone have a room or Caravan Near Bunbury/Tarpoly in cheshire that they would be interested in renting for a month monday - Friday, i am doing some Freelance work in the area and i am looking for something small cheep with WiFi if possible? thanks again

just re reeding your post you said NUCS have you re hived them? i personally would check levels of stores in the nuc before feeding as you don't want to over feed as this can fill all the available laying space, and this could lead to swarming.

presuming they physically have access? Eg you took out any porter escape from the crown board and the rapid feeder is positioned directly over the hole in the crown board, then dribble a tiny bit down the inside of the rapid feeder just enough to entice the bees up, not enough to drown them!!

ooh branch meetings always used to be on the weekend, give them a call and ask for an updated schedule.
