The bees were being rouped out, and a month later he was buying bees in again....LOL A real beeman.

The lesson here is that bees can starve full stop and of course the big ones starve fastest.

Baring disease, (note please hivemaker) I have had and dealt with I think every other disaster apart from flooding.
