Hi, I'm installing my first two hives and wish things weren't dragging

long. Five days in, and one coat of paint to go. Shame on me.

Install them, immediately, in the rain if you have to do so.  Then feed, feed, feed.  1:1 sugar syrup.  They need the carbohydrates to produce the wax needed to build comb.  If you can also feed pollen substitute.  But,  GET 'EM HIVED and fed.
