Hi Bee-Listers,
          Thanks for the info you are sending all the time.  This
morning, I opened my hives to feed them. They are taking that syrup in a
very fast way!  Unfortunetely though, one of them appeared to be
queenless.  No brood, and no visible queen.  I'm just a beginner and
could be mistaken but I saw a lot of capped brood in the other hive.
Interestingly, about three weeks ago I had seen brood in both hives but
just a very few.  What do you think I should do?  I don't think there is
any queen available yet in this part of the world(Canada).  If I put one
on top of the other would that help?  Could I even try to put the quuen
in the bottom with no brood and than the brood in the top with a queen
excluder and try to requeen that part or would that make both of them too
weak?  Thanks in advance.
