Transferring Nucs into Langstroth Hives

It was nice to see our queens in our nucs. Here is one laying eggs.

Can you find the queen on the frame below?

Below are more photos of the overwintered frames of bees from our two nucs, as we put them into their new homes.  More in a few weeks when we see how they’ve expanded. We are giving them each 4 frames to grow into and lots of supplemental sugar to grow on.
