Going to start doing splits first of week
« on: April 08, 2015, 11:25:58 am »
The Nuc I overwintered in the 5 on 5 configuration has just went crazy.  I am starting to see drones so I am going to do  a walk away split when I get back from the rattlesnake hunt this weekend. Then over the course of the summer going to see just how many hives I can end up with splitting this one nuc allowing them to raise their own queen. Should be interesting
