Growing pains is all it is. I grew my apiaries like you did (not as much) and decided 10 colonies is just fine. I sold off a lot of equipment and just do it as a hobby now. At the end of the season I went from 10 colonies to 19. To many for me and so after the build up I'll get set up with the state to certify the hives for sale.
Hi from Texas, have a good year.
Hope you have a great year too!
Good luck with your beekeeping adventure!
Thanks!
Great video all we can do is learn as we go. If we never try we never learn. Them bees are mad lol
Exactly! Gotta learn the hard way sometimes!
