Inspection 2.5


I took a quick peek today and added some more medication. I fired up the smoker, pulled off the outer and inner covers and checked to see what the girls had done since Friday. Fully seven frames are drawn into comb and all the Tetra B was gone. The brood builder patties were about 1/3 eaten. I added two tablespoons of Tetra B (the 2nd of 3 doses) and placed another deep hive body with frames and foundation on top. It's time to give the girls some more room. I'll do a full inspection on Saturday the 28th, weather permitting. I may remove the entrance feeder since they're not using much as a good nectar flow is on.
