Putting the packages on the ground with the "leftover" bees should work fine. I set mine as close as possible to the entrance. Touching if possilbe. It...
Now bees are appearing on our deck and patio. They just sit there. Some are in small groups with their head facing each other. Also on the side of our house...

No, the majority of them seem to be in the hives but a lot are just landing on the house, the deck, and the patio and not moving much. I don't know what normal...

The hive bodies are used. The frames and foundation are new. We are feeding them sugar syrup. We live in the Chicago suburbs. It has been cool and overcast...
Looking to purchase a nuc from somewone doing splits this spring. I live due west of Portland, ME on the NH side of the border. Lost my hive two years ago...
Sounds like a doorbell or heater/furnace transformer. Generally they run about 20ma. 24v x 0.020a = Power in watts ... 0.48 w. Glad you found something cheap &...

I picked up my first nuc and put the hive on a nearby farm. It was 5 frames and he added my four frames with foundation. The bee breeder told me to return the...
Oops, that should be added my 5 frames. Does anyone have any advice on bee suits for kids? They grow so quickly I don't relish the idea of buying bee suits...
Yesterday I picked up 2 packages of bees. I decided to home one yesterday and one today. So I hang the queen cage and then dumped the bees in. When I dumped...

... Just get a hat & veil that is easily adjustable as the child's head grows. White or light colored pants and a long-sleeved white shirt will do for the rest...
