This hive was bursting with bees and needed splitting--


Split they did! As soon as the sun broke out for a brief time this afternoon--


What were they thinking?


Got 'Em Back


Housed in a deep and two mediums


Then the rains came--


Aftermath


I guess I don't need to split this hive after all. Thanks to Marc Stadiem and Tim Goetz for helping with the "split".

Now what are you going to do with the dozen or so queen cells that are in the orange hive?

Want to borrow 10 nuc boxes??

May the best queen win!

Depending on how many queen cells there are maybe pull a frame with some queen cells and a couple of frames of honey and pollen shake in some house bees and start a nuc.

Nice pictures thanks for sharing them.
