Have bees, now what.

[Flydown]

So, I am getting ready to tear down a small building and found bees in one of the walls. I was able to come up with a hive so I went and got the bees. I have them in the hive. Now what?

Pix please?
A wide shot of the hive and full frame shpt of the entrance around
10AM your time.
If you are comfortable lifting the lid for a photo opportunity
a photo or two of the insides would help.

I will be at work at 10:00am tomorrow. I will see if I can get my daughter to take a picture of the entrance. I will lift the top and get the inside tomorrow afternoon.

Do I need to feed them sugar water or anything like that.

Would be a good idea if they are starting with nothing.  Especially if you get some bad weather and they can't fly. They could starve pretty quick.  But  they also need a boost to build comb because I don't imagine you had drawn comb.

I did actually have drawn comb. I had six drawn frames that someone had given me and I had four empty frames that I put comb in from the tear out.
