I have two locations in Northern Live Oak county with bees in an old house wall(two different spots) and then one under a floor in an old storage building if anyone wants them.

We bought a nuc from Bee Weavers Thursday, looking good so far. We had 4 hives (2 brood boxes and 2 supers each) that we lost 3 years ago to hive bettles, going pro active to keep them down to a minimum. Getting a package early April that we should be able to jumpstart with a brood frame from this hive.

We have two hives for April pickup at Weaver, very good luck with their bees so far. Hoping to catch a third for the topbar we have. Definitely get more honey from the Lang than the topbar, but I really enjoy the natural aspect of the topbar with no foundation or frames. They usually build cross or bridged comb, but I guess that's what they normally do unless you give them no choice with foundation and frames.

Our nuc we bought the 1st of March is going strong. They are almost done pulling on the 2nd brood box, probably add a super in a few weeks. Our package is doing well after 2 weeks, seeing eggs and larvae so the queen is going her job. We are feeding both hives every 4 days while they are pulling. The big hive is getting testy now that the pollen flow is kicking into gear, they're coming in loaded with pollen.
