Hi All
On taking advice from other members(thank you)I am changing one of my hives to a National from a Langstroth.
So once I have put the new hive on the top,changed the queen excluder to the top of the new hive,(14x12) appropriately how long will it take for the queen to climb in and the rest of the bee's to follow?
Also how long to close off the lower entrance (the entrance in the over wintered Langstroth) please.
Thank you.
