The offer is now out to anyone who reads this honey 4 sale. Contact me for details and prices.
Just checked the girls and I successfully did a 3 to 1 split. I had one hive make it through the winter last year. I now have that hive, that they naturally requeened themselves, and 2 additional queen right hives from the same stock as the original. So rather then spend money this weekend on the one live sale I have been waiting all year for I get to buy more frames and boxes. Girls gonna need a bigger place to live. All 3 are laying like Champs and at this rate I hope they will have enough to get them through this winter.

Bee eggs. They look like little grains of rice in the center of each cell.

Queen 2 she's more Carmel colored then the first one. She's in a cage so it's a bad pic I didn't want to lose her.

Queen 3 she's exactly in the center of this pic.

I will name them after the 3 fairies in sleeping beauty. Merriweather will be the first one that I showed pix of before. And these 2 will be Flora and Fauna.

In tank news. Tested parameters this morning and alk is working its way up. The baking soda in the ato seems to be doing the trick for now. MG is slowly coming down. We should have a clearer idea of steps to take once icp test results are back. Ca creeped up a bit which I thought was odd but I don't know the exact relationship bw alk and ca so it could be that. Po an ni are steady.

That's all for today kiddos big car show tomorrow. Princess will be staying home though. We are taking the others car. 41 Ford coupe. And his dad's model t. Will post pix tomorrow.

Be safe this weekend and happy Father's day to any dads reading this.

Hey Nate! Good to see the radioactive fish from the lake didn't do a number on you! Thanks for popping in to say hi! Look forward to chatting with you.

Ps I don't know who let the #Cronies in here but I had nothing to do with that. Wink wink nudge nudge.

It's complicated. And if I told you I'd have to kill you. But not dead kill you just kind of hurt you a bit because that k word could be construed as hate speech or bullying. So lets just go with I have to hug you, I don't think anyone would be offended if I threatened to hug you.
