hello jerry
 
sounds good to me.  been raising bees for years, but not continuously.  =
there
was a period of about 15 years that it just couldn't be done.  does that =
give
away my age??  55
 
started off slow this year with only  hives.  the spring promises about =
10 in
3 different locations.  2 hives are doing very well and the third i am =
worried
about.  just not strong enough for my tastes and it is too late to =
re-queen.
 
in am in ne florida where it is usually warm enough most of the year for =
the
hives to be active.  except for last winter, which was a brutal killer.  =
if
this winter looks like a replay, i will wrap them in styrofoam boards and
roofing felt to help keep them warmer.  have pulled 8 gallons this year =
so far
from the 3 and have two full shallow and deep supers to pull yet.
the shallows are setup for cut comb.
 
fill me in
 
best regards
 
stanton
