- 3 National Hives & 1 Observation Hive.(Indoors) & lots of empty boxes..
I am looking for somebody near to the showground side of Norwich who is interested in having a hive on thier property.
I think the weather this year must be my fault because I made the mistake of making a plan!
I did have somebody who was going to have one colony but they changed thier mind.
I made new national hives and transfered the residents of my Warre hives into them in early May, but because of the weather they have only just started to sort themsleves out into some form of organised building programme.
I also have a small nuc made with 2 frames from my observation hive which are slowly progressing.
Basically, I have too many bees and was intending to split one of the hives up into nucs using new purchased queens, but ,but, but, weather seems to have also delayed the queens arrival.
The other alternative is that somebody might like to buy the colony.
