Last week, we brought home a package of bees and a "nuc". The package mostly disappeared, and I tore up a swarm I didn't even know we had, thinking it was the rest of the package.
Well, the swarm stuck around despite my disruption, and is now bringing in pollen. That means they have larvae to feed, and can be moved into an official hive. The brood makes them less likely to abandon a hive, so some people suggest waiting until they are bringing in pollen before moving them, or they may decide to find another home.
The package is really small, with very little outside activity, but is at least alive. Tomorrow, I'll open it up and make sure the queen is free and see if she is laying.
The nuc is doing fine and gaining strength.
And I think I caught another swarm in my other bait hive yesterday. I didn't get a chance to get a good look, but it looked like hive activity, not just scouts.
I built the bait hives, but didn't REALLY expect to get any swarms, so I don't currently have enough equipment or stands for 4 full hives. I guess I've got to get to Lowe's and buy some wood.
