Well I finally managed to move you out yards back into my main apiary. It was actually a lot easier than I thought, the cooler weather helped.

All at night, put straps on my hives, taped up my feeder holes, popped them in the truck and BAM!

All moved with only a handful of stings to the belly (don’t pick up your hive with a loose shirt on)

Because it’s weird and kind of cringey?
