Week 3 hive check

Well today is Mothers day. Happy Mums day to all of you hard working moms !

I decided to do a hive check. it was 68 deg and sunny with a slight NE wind.

Hive no 1

Opened hive 1 and this is what i saw.After smoking 1 puff. Feed and closed it back up.

Now I just slid some frames outa the way and took a peek for my eggs and saw some in the first frame i grabbed also here's a frame with bees from hive one.

Hive no 2 Here's what i saw on first opening. The girls didn't want to listen to me about building cross comb.

So i cleaned up the cross comb and checked for eggs. Saw some and a lot of brood larva hers a good pic of that.

Walter hive this is what i saw. I check this for eggs and found some. So i fed and closed her back up.These seem to be the most docile now. They cling to the brood instead of coming out to say hi.

Heres a couple pics of the frames outa his hive.

And for the first time this hive was more active than the others. Hers a cool pic of the entrance with the bees guarding it and one with a good load of pollen.

That's all for Now. Next week we should have New baby bees ! The hives should really take off then. And also more and more flowers are opening up ! Subscribe to get my updates !
