Top Bar Hive Inspection0
Doing an inspection on one of my top bar hives. This is the first top bar hive I built. The queen in this hive is most likely not the original queen from the package that was installed on April 1, 2010. Earlier in the season the hive produced several supercedure queen cells. The original queen was not marked. This is also the first time I have found the queen since the package was installed April 1, 2010.

Installing bees into a top bar hive
This is an installation after I cut a nice feral hive out of someone’s wall, I’m using my own designed frames for cut outs top bar hives don’t use frames but frames are sure handy during a cut-out! You can check out my Bee Blog @ tbh-bees.blogspot.com
