Hi, I’m a very new keeper! I spend most of my time standing by hive looking confused. Two weeks ago I put a five frame nuc into my hive. The farm I bought them from said to start feeding them a 1:1 syrup. I’ve been doing this via a rapid feeder and they are eating about 2lts every four days. My question is, do I just keep on feeding them. There is a 1acre borage field blooming about 50m away. I’ve seen them coming back with borage pollen, so I’m guessing they’re finding some nectar.
Thanks
