Swarm 2/16/23

Post by DuaneB »

It was supposed to get to 72° today, so I was a little concerned that there might be some swarming today. I came home at lunch and noticed bunch of bees going in and out of a 3 stack of nuc bodies on a bottom board. After going through the swarm, I did see the Queen. She is not one of mine, as she was unmarked. I'll let them stay the there until Sunday, then condense then into a single nuc and feed them. The frames is the 3 nuc bodies are either undrawn or empty drawn frames, so there is nothing to rob.
