When these colonies are right though, they will produce honey at an alarming

wasn't so hard. I may try this again. Phil

Boy that line hooked me....Phil, The two queen hives I am fooling with are
actually single boxes with dividers and excluders built ino the
dividers......not actually two boxes side by side that may come together in
one stack of supers up top.....anyhow we will see how it turns out...I have
had a fair amount of success in using this with a very limited population of
bees.
I actually use these hives to grow queens and am endeavoring to combine
functions.
Thanks for your comments.
