Not the case - all the hives are fine. Lots and lots of brood and bees. I had added a deep to the Swarm Hive on Tues and they were so doggone ill, I had to leave and even when I came back later, they were waiting for me. It was not a good bee day. No stings but there's nothing like having about a dozen bees in your face so that was all for Tuesday. I added a deep to Nuc #4. Nothing to Hive #6 and Nuc #3. Hive #4 and Nuc #1 just reversed the deeps. They have room and maybe in a couple of weeks, I'll add supers to all the hives. But for right now, I want the bees to fill out the brood boxes or deeps.
Very happy - started the winter with six hives and all six survived.
And I did get stung - twice, once on each foot. I need some different shoes or something.
This is the beeyard after adding the deeps and reversing the deeps. I had taken a nuc out and set it up thinking a split could be done. But we didn't see any queen cells. Maybe later.
