We have just finished treating the bees with Apiguard and we have started feeding. They have already had one gallon of sugar syrup in the last four days.
I extracted the honey on Friday afternoon we have about 40 lbs so really good. Tonight I put the wax and one of the wet supers (honeycomb from which the honey has been extracted) back on the so they can clean it up before I give them some more syrup. Connie hive is on her second gallon and Adele will get a second gallon tomorrow.
I have to say that I am loving our new Maisemore feeders - you really don't have to bother the bees at all to add more syrup.
Next job is to do a varroa count.
