Split Hives Update

Hive Split 7/19

The population of bees is exploding - so much so, they want to swarm.  To prevent this, we can do the split for them.  So we have gone from 2 hives to 4!

Update 7/30

So far so good!  We are seeing progress in the new hives and the other two seem to have calmed down a bit.  Both queens are intact in the Asguard and Wakanda Hives.  The two new hives have capped queen cells (Brooklyn and Stark Tower).

We also have visiting Monarch Butterflies!  The milkweed is a great choice for honey flow (increasing the honey amount in the hive).  But to add to help Monarch Butterflies is a bonus!
