A swarm arrived..............

[Brosville]

As of about an hour and a half ago - I'm a beekeeper!
(With thanks to my local "swarm fella")- who reckons it's the biggest swarm he's had this year

 

[Polyanwood]

I bet you're smiling from ear to ear. Congratulations!

You going to treat for varroa before you got any brood?

 

[Brosville]

they'll certainly be icing sugared, beyond that it'll be depending on what the counts are......

Well done Brosville,good to hear your a beekeeper.

Congratulations Brosville, I'm really pleased to hear it.

Now, just watch out for those neonicotinoids

Happy beekeeping

Gavin

 

[Brosville]

thankyou kind sirs! - Just been out to check on them - they're now all in the hive, and there's a contented hum emanating

 

[BKF Admin]

Is that a contented hum or the sound of a queenless hive ?

Only teasing

 

[VEG]

About time too Brosville

You got room on the side of that hive for a nice big BAYER sticker

At Last!

Nice hive, but they still look like a coffin on legs.
