Hello from Arkansas 100% newbie

[7879fordman]

Well I have bees now for about two weeks there not the 12 nucs that I have bought which aren't ready . But 6 2 frame shook packages guess you can call it that placed in my hives . Had a probley fast because I placed the them two close in my apiary as I didn't know . And most the bees went to one hive .
The weight of bees that was divided to my 6 hives was 40 pounds .
So I need up with a super hive in 3 days . The guy I got the bees from took care of me I took my 5 weak hive to him and he shook more bees in . And I got the back home and scattered them across 3 miles . So now I have a super hive that doing super that's about 2 weeks old now . And 5 that's about a week old and doing good .

Still awaiting the 12 nucs I have so want be long I will have 18 hives as a newbee .
