[QUOTE="Amber88, post: 12903, member: 687"] Thanks, the weaker of the 2 weak hives i combined has the tiniest queen I've ever seen. It had 2 small empty queen cells upon inspection today which I was surprised to see, so she must have just hatched, but even then I'm guessing a tiny queen will not be much chop so I'm not holding my breath. I'm pinning my hopes on my healthy looking 3rd hive. I'm sure I'll be able to split it off in no time and recoup. Thanks for the tip about the polystyrene, I'll try some of that for next winter [/QUOTE]
