Hi All, 

Omer responded first and will check the hive today. If anything doesn’t work out I’ll reach out to Pamela. 

Thank you

Call me as I can possibly rehouse them in one of my hives.

I have a weak hive with which I could merge them if they are still available.

Thank you

Hi All, 

Looks like this hive has no queen, so it is a good amount of bees left over from a swarm that was already collected. When I looked in they had built out comb and were collecting. 

Is anyone interested in taking these bees and merging them with your hive or trying to queen them? They are already packed up and ready up and ready to go! 

Best

Hi All, 

A few weeks ago I gave away a swarm to the list that had made a home in my old hive box equipment. I recently cleaned out my equipment and realized there are still a substantial amount of bees in the box, basically the size of a small swarm. I am not sure if this is a new swarm, or if the remaining bees kept the hive going. I don't have room for another hive and would like to give this one away either to combine with an active hive or as its own colony. I have already boxed up the hive with a bottom board, a deep and put straps around it so it is ready to transport, and then checked out to see what is the best course of action. 

Let me know if you are interested!

Best, 

Julia
