Mama bee & Me
So tonight after dinner with the assistance of my 17 year old son Nicholas we attempted to install the Queens cage. Nicholas was hinging the top super which weighs over 80+ lbs. and got stung on the inside of his palm. I felt so bad!!!
I got Queen Fiona in her hive and had to pull one of the side frame to fit the Queens cage. One side had no comb and the other side had about a 4x6 area of comb and capped honey. Feeling bad about Nicholas, I brought the frame into the house to surprise him and say sorry! The gesture was very very well received! After heating a knife Nicholas cut the caps off to show "Liquid Gold".

I would like to get a swarm to start my first hive And I am wondering whom to contact to help me . I can probably afford to order a new hive and the equipment but want to meet others who have an interest in helping me start . I figure a true swarm is the only way to go . I live in browning and have a large amount of lilac and Terrigana ( pea Bush ) in my yard and am working on organic gardens , I have loads of organic dandelion also.
