New Bee
I have recently bought a fully occupied hive and a Nuc, which I have transferred to another hive- 6 frame. I have given both hives sugar water however the bees from the Nucleus hive are ignoring it, they aren’t interested in the small feeder either.
Both hives are very active and I have watched them coming in and out with pollen filled legs but I am puzzled as to why the Nuc hive aren’t interested in the sugar water whereas the others in the other hive have tucked in.
They are situated in a more shaded area but as I said they are just as active. Any suggestions as to why they are ignoring the feed?
