Folks,
 
All this discussion about Top Bar Hives has me fascinated and wanting to
try one next year just for fun.  I don't recall seeing it on the list,
or maybe I'm just not observant, but how does one get a colony started
in a TBH??  Can you start with a package and put them in the same way as
with a Langstroth, or make a split from an existing Langstroth colony,
or is there a special way of doing it??  I'm really anxious to try this,
so any responses would be greatly appreciated!!
 
Sincerely,
Kevin Palm
