This will be a big weekend for some of you as Randy said just breath in a bag and don't be intimidated. I will post the video that was in the class the other night for you to refer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ek7dDtZ0lK8

I was in some boxes today and have a few observations to post. Make sure you have ten (10) frames in your deep brood boxes. This is important because you can get a real mess forming with any less than ten frames. They tend to fill every nook and cranny and if you have the right amount of frames they tend to keep a nice neat house. Also the straighter the wax is installed the neater they will build upon it. Remember it is called foundation.

  1. Hi Robbie, pick up bees this weekend and have had a problem. Only had 9 frames in the box that I thought was recommended. One frame of wax collapsed and the queen box feel to the bottom. What a mess. The sugar water bag leaded fluid out the base and some bees have drowned. Are the bags over full ? What should I do at this point.
