I need some advice as to how to start a nuc hive( I have a four-frame nuc
and feeder).
I have five good hives now; I thought I would pull two frames of brood from
the strongest, wait 24 hours and put in the new queen. Do I need to place
the nuc very far from the other hives? How long should I keep the bees
confined in the nuc? Lots of questions,
need some advice(and experience).
Thanks, Bob
