Skyscrapers


It's stepstool time in the bee yard. Cam's hive just got its 10th super! I'm running out of places to put them. I'm having to store the supers with capped frames in the garage now.

Toby gave me a hand last week which was a lot of fun.


He helped with the record keeping.


Ick! Drones on a stick. No mites though! A nice snack for the chickens.

  1. might want to think about a 'horizontal hive'. seen designs that are effectively on long medium super using langstrom frames with bee drawn comb and a top entrance. you won't have to 'retool' your equipment much. see bushbees.com..

  3. Whoa why do those drones look so big? Is that just the camera angle or they actually thumb sized?
