Well sorta. Come spring I will be :) I live in South Alabama in the Dothan area. I am going to be starting 2 hives and I am going to be going with the KTBHs. I have been reading information from all over the place and this seems like the ones that will suite me the most. Of course I did have a local guy refuse to sale me some bees because of it. However, I hope I have found a place for some bees. I will be calling the guy in Feb to see.
Just wanted to say hi.
Welcome!

There's several zone maps....some maps just give a "Zone 8" while others break it down into an "a" and "b" region of zone 8. You are somewhat in a transitional area but leaning more toward a zone 8b. Looks like several maps throw the SE and SW corners of Alabama into zone 8b.
