Rodni, welcome to our forum. We have so many new members coming on here, what a wonderful thing. You are asking questions and you will get great answers. There is no question that is considered dumb, or that will not get an answer, ask ANY question that you want, seriously, it is a good thing, and ask away.
You have an interest in keeping bees, beautiful. YOu will be surprised how many people would not even know that you had bees in your back yard. Spend lots of time here, asking questions, reading, you will soon get bees, and then your questions will be even more, hee, hee, ;) :) :)
Welcome, have a wonderful and awesome day, love our life we live. Cindi
