Thank you for your reply. They have a good bit of stores but I just want to make sure they have enough. Temperature is about the same in Dublin for the next week anyway.What’s the forecast for Dublin?
We have 15 in the day and 8 at night here in west wales. I’ve finished feeding. If I had to feed from scratch now I’d use invert and bang it in as fast as I could.
Do your bees need much?
Is it true bees can not store fondant. They can only consume it? Where as with syrup they can store it? Would it not be better to give them syrup instead at this time? Thank you all for your feedback

I once heard a bee feed supplier at a convention trying to convince people it was safe to put fondant on the crown boards during the season as a 'just in case' measure to avoid starvation as they wouldn't store it.Yet some people insist they feed fondant so they can spot if it gets into the supers!
