Inspected the hive I dropped off in my buddies back yard today. The hive had been unmanaged for a year in a farmers field. I found a mouse nest as well as some brood issues, but with some good ole TLC they should be fine. I will be adding teramyacin soon.

Why? Are they sick? Isn't there a honey flow now?
I was noticing some brood "issues". It seemed as if they were dying off and being removed. Also, I dont plan on robbing this season.
