Selling hives?

[gww]

Saw.....

If none of us sell bees to newbees, then for the most part our hobby will die. How did you get bees?  Someone sold them to you and then you had to learn how to take care of them. That is what this board is all about, helping each other learn about bees.

>In our state hobbiest are really only allowed to have 10 hives per household.

How?  By legislation?  What would that legislation look like?

http://agr.mt.gov/Bees

Hobbyist: An apiary placed by permission on someone's property and limited to not more than 5 hives per individual or 10 per household. There is no minimum distance required between hobbyist apiaries. Hobbyist registrations are voluntary, however, beekeepers who choose to register must pay all program fees.

Not very strong regulation because if you don't register how do they know how many apiaries you have?

Bee laws per state would make a great new topic.  I believe it is so pertinent that a new thread should be made.  Do it,,,,I?m gonna look up Arkansas law sobI can copy and paste.
