We placed a board on the front of the hive, then we dumped the bucked of bees on the board. The bees then send out scouts to find a new home. Since the hive is right there a scout would be bound to find the new hive. Music was provided by Nisha.

Is Nisha playing Schubert's Symphony in "BEE" minor? I look forward to more beekeeping stories and BEEutiful music. Please tell us the kind of bee you have: I know you said they were Italian... Thanks, Cheryl
