Monday is the big day for me! I get two package bees. I have been watching videos to educate myself and I think I'm ready. I have two hives next to each other. Do I install one package after the next, or do I wait some time in between?
Thanks,
Art
I did mine back to back.
Did mine back to back. They are on opposite ends of a couple of 8ft 4x4's. Didn't have a problem.

Good to know. Mine are side by side.
In one yard, mine are side by side (with enough room to walk between.) I usually install the downwind package first just so strays will not be moving my way. Good luck. -Mike
Ok, good, good. I'm absorbing everything. Keep it coming! :-)
Be Careful!!! You don't want to put them in upside down!...
just kidding
I thought about that, but I plan on giving each one a name so I can read their name tags and know when they are right side up! *Wink!*
I have had to name tag all 450,000 bees in one of my yard because they are Free Range bees and I want them back. -Mike :cheesy:
Mikecva,
I'll keep that in mind! Packages should arrive today.
My post office would have called way before 8:27 am. They don't want them there very long. Makes 'em nervous, I guess.
