First Bee Hive Inspection Of The Year With Cotswold Bees

[@Trevby1]

Thanks Chris. All looking good to my untrained eye! There have been some swarms already in my area so I will be keeping a close eye on my hives!

Hello Trevor. You are ahead of us but I suspect we will start getting some swarms soon. I’m a bit worried about the queen in that hive with the presence of small drones so please keep watching to see what develops.

brilliant, thank you mate.

[@cotswoldbees]

My pleasure. Glad you enjoyed it.

Hello mate, great vlog I would say my hives are looking very similar to your hive also with plenty of drones I’ve put my first supers on all my hives as they are bringing in lots of pollen and nectar so looking like a good spring honey harvest weather permitting. Thank you for sharing your info and knowledge very much appreciated.

[@cotswoldbees]

Great to hear. Fingers crossed.

We will make sure we follow the colony through the season.

Nice to see you getting in the hives. I've made 9 splits so far this year. Thanks!
