I checked on my mini hive, they’re all gone. I guess they hung around till they realized the others wouldn’t be back, or until their queens pharamones wore off. I know that hive had swarms before, so maybe I’ll get lucky and get a grand baby swarm back.

They may have also died off. They only live around 36 - 40 days.
Sorry they are all gone.

This gal makes it all work I caught a picture of one of our queens emerging. She has to chew her way out.

We have 1500 lbs about of honey. Not going to the farmers markets this year, usually we work two. We mainly sale to customers that contact us and we meet them at McD and or leave it in the mail box.

so yes we have a lot of honey.
