Billy's Bees

Both colonies are still growing and going strong. The package bees building out comb in the send brood box faster than i expected. I need to get a honey super ready this week, don't know yet how soon I will need it but it looks like they are getting close. The swarm hive is a couple of weeks behind the package, but they are catching up. As of today there is only one frame with no comb built on it. One that has comb on one side and the other 7 are front and back with comb. I move the one with no comb more to the center of the box to encorage the bees to build on it. Tonight I need to work on getting the second brood box ready, just need to install foundation on the frames. I think I might be addign it this weekend.
