I am getting ready to install my first packages (2) of bees this coming
Saturday (I'm very excited and nervous).  I know that I need to feed
them plenty of syrup until our first flow.  I am planning on just
sitting a bucket of syrup on the inner cover with a super and top cover
over it.  I plan to put some sticks or something in the bucket for the
bees to land on.  I have heard of drilling a bunch of little holes in a
bucket lid then inverting it, but I cant see any reason not to do what I
previously described.  Could someone please tell me if my method will
work or am I missing the boat completely?
 
Thanks for your time
