Just starting with 2, self-built Warre hives. Should I start out the new bees in all 4 boxes or just 2?
Also being an old lady, I can’t lift real heavy stuff,. You suggested that you just “Slip” and empty box on the bottom when the bees need more room.
How is this done? Do you take them all apart and set them on the ground, or what? Do I have to build a jack or a fork lift?

Any suggestions for correcting this? I was thinking of turning the box 90 degrees and bottom-supering with another box with guide strips on the top bars. The top box will still have the crossed comb, but it’s going to ne the brood chamber any way. Any suggestions?

You have an AMAZING site. I found it accidentally when about to order bee boxes and am now getting my husband to build the Warre ones instead. Thank you SO much for the wealth of information you provide here!!!

I recently started a beekeeping hobby which I hope will develop into a full time business for me one day.

Beekeeping can be a bit of a challenge to get started with unless you have a lot of quality information to help you quickly learn everything that you need to know.

One great resource that I found for beginner beekeepers is http://www.thebeekeeper.info

You should check out this site as it has a ton of articles on beekeeping.

Thanks again!

Voracious learner… Kind of interested in all styles, actually, even skeps (I’m told their not exactly legal here). Thanks for bringing all the info together!
