Checked my girls today, and the Queen is still laying very strongly - I am beginning to wonder if she is ever going to stop!
I have 6 frames of assorted brood and 2 of stores in the BB. The super above - which I am leaving for them has 4-5 overflowing frames. So (as they are my only colony) I hope they will have enough to get through the winter.
I did feed for 10 days, but they just didn't seem interested so have stopped for now. I'll keep an eye on them, but it means jumping into the suit if a day suddenly warms enough to go in.
