Well the temp was 77f/25c outside. Why not check the remaining colonies that I have. This was my first time in 2025 pulling some frames. I wanted to get a feel for how the colonies were looking, see if they were starting to build up.
What a surprise. I found several frames of brood, so that is a huge relief. Very soon, i'll boost them with supplements and start to build the populations so that they can be split. I want to boost my numbers this season.
