Checked the hive yesterday and there were several drones with capped drones as well. Temp was 64 degrees and had a mission to find the queen and mark her. Mission accomplished! :lol: I called Chadwell Bee supply to ask for some advice and he couldn't believe I had drones already. The hive is in Jamestown, TN up on the Cumberland Plateau. It is normally 5-10 degrees colder there being up on the plateau. Jamestown is about 15 miles South of the Kentucky Border.
I am 150 miles north of you and had some drone brood also.....
