Hey Perry,  thanks.  Can you imagine how foolish I feel?

How many bees are on the box in your first pics, and how many in this one? There's your answer. Now you're getting some action.

PS. Everybody remembers the awkwardness of their "first time".   :laugh: :yes:

wow! Looking good!

  I might have just opened the barrel and shaken them into my yard... Provided I could get the top off the barrel withiut damaging it.
  they will gather about the queen so you can find her and pinch her, then they will start looking for a new home...
   At least your way you choose which hives get strengthened instead of the bees.

   With that many bees I might have fed the heck out of them and tried to winter them too... SO MANY options...
     How the heck are you doing Ted??
