Preparing for Spring

Only one of the hives seems showing signs of life, so I ordered two nucs from Overland Apiaries - Russian/Carniolan with a bit of Italian in the mix. Also two replacement queens due in June to replace the Carniolans introduced two years ago. If I lose three hives I will make a split from the one hive still going.

Made up candy boards and will feed once the weather warms - currently only up to the mid thirties this time of year.
