They should be ok if they have some food in thie r belly but you may want
to brush them into a conatiner and spray them with WARM thin syrup,Keep
them in total dark and the when the outside temp is above 45 take them
outside and see what they do. I sent a previous message but my computer did
not wrok right I have lots ofways to work with cold bees . I this message
works Ill send another
