Yesterday I caught my 1st swarm. Recently met a local older Beek who call me to let me know he had found this swarm. I went over and with his help we put the swarm in one of my spare hives I had taken over. Went back next morning early we closed off the entrance and I took my hive full of new bees home.
I was surprised to find how many bees were in the hive, so far so good.
Well congratulations on the swarm and welcome to the forum.
Cool & welcome! :-D
Thats great, glad you found somebody close that is willing to teach you of the bees ways.
So are you hooked on collecting swarms yet? I know I am.
G3
Yea good luck and welcome.
Yea I'm hooked.
With any luck they will build up enough and make it through the winter.
Congratulations on your swarm, HiHat
