Looking for a frame of open brood
by Ekaterina Davydenko 21 Feb '22

21 Feb '22

I am hoping to find someone who can help me to obtain a frame with an open brood to be placed in a trap out hive to lure out the queen. I set up a trap out hive this past Friday to the extended entrance that the bees already successfully are using. But the family that has these bees on a property has two small kids with a newborn and dogs. So to speed up the who moving part and trapping out, I would like to ask all of you, beekeepers, to help me with this! I appreciate any help with it in advance! Here is the list of the process I am following for anyone who is interested: https://www.honeybeesuite.com/the-price-trap-out-no-bee-left-behind/ And I attached a picture of my setup. -- Sincerely, Ekaterina Davydenko.

Seeking a temporary home for 2 hives

Good morning, All! I hope that your hives are overwintering well and that we might all have healthy, buzzing hives in a month or so. I live in Santa Fe and I am moving to a new house. With the way the move has come together, I have a gap of about a month where I do not have a home for my hives. I thought I had this base covered, but not all plans work out. Please contact me if you have space to accommodate two Langstroth hives from 2/23 through approximately the end of March. An ideal arrangement would have space for a 5x8 garden trailer with the hives on board, but a home for the hives themselves is my first priority. These are Saskatraz bees and I have seen activity on the recent warmer days, so I am hopeful that all is well inside. Thanks in advance for your consideration of this request. Happy beekeeping!
