I collected a swarm yesterday a big swarm of Carnies all yellow . I placed them in an observation hive and feed them . They are on fresh foundation. At 0830 this morning the bloody lot had come out of the obs hive and were hanging around the hole used for the entrance. So I scooped what was there into a skep and left them. At 0900 the majority had gone back into the Obs hive. Thank gawd. So now hopefully I have an observation hive on the go.
My first thoughts when I saw the bees outside this morning was what have I done wrong why are they out. They do look different with the Gray ish hair on the thorax.
So that's my tale of woe.
