Chris said "On the very rare occasions that I feed my bees with syrup I usually add some blue food dye to make it obvious if any ends up in the honey.  I wonder whether somebody near you is doing the same."



Did your blue tracer reveal anything interesting about how the bees use/distribute the syrup? Did post-feeding supers end up with any blue honey?
