Hi Allen:
When I was feeding with drums, I cut horizontal slits in the sides and
hammered the metal above the slit outward. With the lid on, rain and cows
could not get in but the bees could get in through the slits.
I am now using just hive top feeders. They are sucking down about a half
gallon a day.
I am nearly ready to wrap. Since this is my first year wintering with auger
holes, I am curious about your treatment of bottom entrances.
Best regards
Donald Aitken
