Hi all.
Just dropping in to say hello.
I've joined this forum to learn as much as possible about this great hobby of keeping bees.
There's some great info on this forum that I will be reading to gain experience as I go along.
I currently have just a single hive in my yard that is almost 5 weeks old. I purchased a 4 frame NUC & the bees are going fantastic.
I have almost the full 10 frames drawn out with great stores of pollen & honey stored where it should be on the frames. The queen is laying great with the brood pattern edge to edge & top to bottom, hardly missing a cell. I'm hoping to put my queen excluder on in the next week or two if this weather clears. I have a Nuplas 10 frame, 3 box hive which I really like. Running a shallow vented bottom board & a standard lid. Extremely happy so far with the bees bringing in vast amounts of three different coloured pollen.
Cheers
