Our bees seem to be really good at making more bees (3 swarms this year) but are slacking in the making honey department.
Our newest hive looked very busy so I thought J should go ahead and add a honey super to it. That went fine.
So while he was all suited up, he checked on the other two hives. And what a disappointment to see no drawn comb or honey started in either one. I am hoping that it is still just early and since it has been so wet maybe that has stalled production some.
Anyway, J was glad to have the suit on. Since we were just peeking in the hives and not really doing anything he didn't bother to use a smoker. You can see they got a little angry. Maybe I'll have him suit up again in July and check their progress again.
