Title: When is the best time to move your Hives?
Post by: Mklangelo on September 04, 2007, 09:55:48 PM
I'm going to expand from 3 hives to 6 next year and where the place I'm in now is barely enough room for the three I have.

Most of the time I like moving my bees after dark. If you already have a outyard you could move them there and make your splits at that location at the same time.

It depends on the equipment and the help I have:
