Well, it didn't go as smoothly as planned...the can got stuck, then I got stuck. I had to go back and put the box in the hive after they calmed down a bit. I hope they like their new home.(and that they stay)

Thank you. Well, there are some around the "door" and the queen is still in the queen box...with a couple of holes poked in the sugar to make the escape easier. Hopefully they will decide to stick around as she can't run off. :)

I saw your posting on the "How did you choose your member name?" thread and saw you are in Caroline. I am on the Talbot/Caroline border between Matthewstown and Dover Roads. I assume that since you got Georgia bees on the 18th that you got them from Mike Embrey. I picked up six packages from him that day.

Yes, all one apiary. Started last year with a package and a nuc. This year, gangbusters. I'm on the Choptank and have to take advantage of the acres of marsh mallows.
