Using Double Screen boards to support weak Nucs for Winter

In this episode we’re showing how we use our queen castles, which have double screen boards, to support our small colonies in preparation for winter.

Our pleasure!

I have a nuc I may do this with (If I don't just combine them). I need to confirm mite treatments worked before I put them over another colony (or combine). Cheers from NC as well.

Thanks! You too!

Good video Ashby and Coriiii! I'm looking at my wife's digital scale now. What weight do you want your doubles in for winter?

[@Ashby_Farms_NC]

Top box at least 50lbs

We all do it, you will have peace only if you don’t think about it.

I have NEVER heard that you can requisition kitchen supplies for bee keeping 😅😅😅😅 or maybe I have #PleadThe5th

[@Ashby_Farms_NC]

Exactly!

[@ericgandy1291]

That is a tiny little Nuc.

The good an bad about getting your kitchen robbed by Ashby the bad is he has to use what ever he can find of your to use that will work. The good part is NOW he has to take you shopping so you can pick out even better stuff that you can use an let him pay for it . Well that is how it works here I have to purchase better stuff for the house than I took . 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️sorry Ashby . Ya I just put on a feeding today an looking at what is going on with them I think ya it is going to take at least one more feeding for me also . Thanks
