[QUOTE="James, post: 6754, member: 212"] Been a stunner of a day. I've been back to bees I worked two and a bit weeks ago. This time around I poked into the bees, pulled frames out and took stock of the situation ..... brood, feed and varroa. The feed is tight. Most got a syrup feed. Every Hive got varroa treatements too ..... O/A strips from Hive world. The interesting thing was opening the drone brood with the cappings scratcher. Varroa ..... The other thought was that I need to start raising a few cells as many of the hives will need splitting soon. And the other thought was that this year might be quite a good year. Many of the Cockies are commenting on the amount of clover in the paddocks...... already. I have noticed ont he farm here that the grass growth is probably three weeks ahead of norm. [/QUOTE]
