New eggs! There is one just above the tip of the pin. Once you see it, you can see them in adjacent cells too. |
Directions from Joe were to add a honey super once all 20 frames have been drawn out. There are still at least a half dozen frames that need more comb, so I'll give the hive two more weeks before my next inspection. Opening up the hive is disruptive to the workers, and it is best not to do it more than is necessary--imagine each room of your 20-room house being picked up into the air and inspected by a giant, one at a time. Unnerving, even without the occasional bee squish.
Yay! Thanks for posting - I really do enjoy reading about your bees!
