I imagine you could use an excluder with it, but they don't. Most makers lean toward Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:41:50 GMT Christy Hemenway http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1923 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1923 Hi Earl -- I suspect that what you saw was called a "follower board". I have never found a need to exclude the queen in a top bar hive - she doesn't Thu, 05 Nov 2009 23:39:11 GMT klmpub http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1922 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1922 Haven't bought or built my 1st TBH yet but was looking at pics and saw a hive that appeared to have 18 bars then another 16 bars on the other side of some form Thu, 05 Nov 2009 17:22:37 GMT First http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1921 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1921 Well I got initiated last night. I took everyones advise and went and removed 1 of the 2 honey supers off of each of the hives. Everything went extremely well Wed, 04 Nov 2009 05:52:42 GMT wildemagic1 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1920 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1920 If it were me and If they needed to be moved so close to winter I would cut the exess honey, you will probably need to feed them after set up. Then depending Tue, 03 Nov 2009 17:36:13 GMT OOWONBS@... http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1919 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1919 Like garden lists, beek lists can slow at this time of year. I'm on a dozen bee lists (or more) but this is in the bottom of the top 5 or so. As a Warré hive Tue, 03 Nov 2009 01:59:34 GMT Christy Hemenway http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1918 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1918 I think you've gotten some pretty good advice from another response... near dark for sure, as you want as many bees to be at home as possible. If you will be Mon, 02 Nov 2009 15:38:08 GMT First http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1917 http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/TopHive/message/1917 Yes langstoth hives. I do have a topbar hive but no bees. I made it this past month to begin with but I was given these 2 colonies.
