Having gone through the Poly/Wood dilemma a couple of years ago and decided that the wooden hive better suited our ethics and my practical skills, (you can't make your own polys); It now looks like we will be trying out a poly national, or rather my eight year old will as she entered the kids competition in April's Bee Craft and won the hive courtesy of MB.
It's a great prize and will certainly help satisfy my curiosity about poly, although of course it means I'm going to have to order some supers and a feeder as well as having to promise our six year old his own hive as long as he shows enough interest.
