Looking for honey to buy

Hi! I’m looking for some local honey near Summerfield. If you have any, please text me! I will buy or barter - I have fresh eggs and make a delicious goat cheese. Text me 336-451-1993 if you have any please :-)

Re: When to check?

Wally- now I’m lookin at your post and wondering if I need to go back in and look for eggs? They’ve been in the hives for 9 days and I’ve already gone in twice. Once to retrieve the queen cages and again to push the frames together better - I goofed and had them all spaced out nice and evenly instea...

Re: When to check?

I did end up checking on Thursday when I saw the weather report for the next few days. Both queens were out so I pulled the cages but didn’t do much more because I didn’t want to disturb them too much!

When to check?

Installed bees in my first two hives Saturday! There seems to be a widely varied consensus on when to go in and check to see if the queen was released.
-What do the experts here say?
-Do I need to keep feeding them or is there enough nectar flow now?
Thanks!
