- How long is a piece of string
Thought it was necessary to do a quick check.Nothing major just a quick look inside and have a look at what fondant is left on all 4 hives.
1 hive
Solid floor fondant above CB lots of dead bees around fondant but they are active looking through the glass CB.About 4lbs of feed left
all other hive OMF
2 hive lots of fondant BUT very small cluster about 6 " in length and on 3 frames. Lots of dead bees the whole floor is covered in them.
3 hives clustered under about 6 lb fondant (seen life)
4 hive about 8lb fondant and bees flying
Any thoughts on Hive 2 please
