Well, a little sad today but really not unexpected. I tried to overwinter 6 nucs this year for the first time. They weren't super strong, in fact a couple were on the light side, but I popped fondant on them a while back. I decided to take a peek in the 2 weak ones as they were side by side at the end of the 6. Both dead. Full frame of honey in one and fondant still left in the other. Clusters were both too small to make a go of it in this cold we're having. Found both queens though.
Fingers crossed on the other 4, but I have my doubts. They were all active a couple weeks ago till we had those 2 back to back bad storms and now I don't see much activity at all. Still pretty cold, so I guess I'll wait till things warm up a bit.
