I do what Harbour master suggested. It may bee too cool down south to make queens at the moment Another idea... take lid off a good hive. Put double thickness newspaper over top with a couple of stabs through it, same as the lady in the fish and chip shop does. Put the box with bees of...

2500km to travel and my parcel arrived in 2 days. Top job and all fits like a bug in a rug :Y:

Nenad I just ordered a sP01 pouch and gaters. I dont know how to select color. Would you please be able to get camo if you have one in stock. Cheers

1 big base helps to hold both together with 4 cleats with beetle mod Start with 2 standard brood boxes with opposite facing entrances, must requeen with same age queens. When ready to super them I make a spacer, 2 half lids and a standard lid. The half lids I bend the piece of tin upward which...
