New Bee
May I be like a proud parent who drones on (see what I did there)? May I ?
I left my bees for a two week holiday. Before I left they were a small colony, only three weeks old. Dumping drone brood and I'd hoiked out a wax moth larva. They were super placid but I feared the worst.
I'm back and it's a bonanza! The brood box is full bar one frame, the queen has been laying like I've never seen before.
The formerly empty super is completely full of uncapped stores and I'm busily hammering new frames together for a second.
And they're still fairly placid.
Long reign Queen Artemisia (Sorry, I've always named my queens).
Hooray!
If I could afford another hive I'd have another one nearby, I'm in a honey farm spot.
