Hi Everyone!
 
I tried one new  hive this summer to see how it would work out, (if what was said about it claimed to be true).
I am very excited about how it's been working out!  At any time I can open this hive and not have to pry or pull at it,  to get anything apart.  Frames come out by simply lifting them out without useing my hive tool.  I'm not trying to advertise anything here... I'm just stating what I've found, seeing this tread is about bee space, bur comb, problems with everything stuck down. It maybe also contributed to that, the bees who live there are not inclined to stick things together, but I personally think it is due to the dementions of this hive.  I'm going to use these hives from here on, because it saves me much time, when going through and checking on what the bees are up to.
This hive is called the D.E. Hive and is, I think the brain child from The Bee Works, here in Canada. 
Since this summer I have raised and expanded my hives from Two to twenty-five, and also sold four nukes.  The other hives are all langs which I find awkward compaired to this particular hive. 
 
Bee Good.
