I hived a swarm on Mother's Day from the house next door.  There was about 4
to 5 pounds of bees.  My hive of packaged bees are still strong so they
weren't from there.  ( I have added the second full supper. )  The neighbors
thought it was great fun and so did my kids.
 
Should I give the swarm some sugar water?
