A quick look into the Corona property hives. Colony (025) shows approximately the same number of bees as earlier in the month. No significant growth is seen with this queen and the month of March.
Colony (28-29) still continues to grow at an astonishing rate. The colony is taking up sugar water and back filling some of the brood chamber a bit. The colony was extremely strong and 2 frames were removed for a third split for this month. These splits are likely too early in the season to produce viable colonies. however, we will either combine these bees back to the mother colony or use these splits as breeding colonies in April.
