New Bee Hive With Full Brood

These are few pictures of my new hive and a full brood of bees; they are now in place in a secluded location in Huntingdonshire. I went down to add a super on and the bees are getting orientated to their new location. This is my second hive which I purchased from Lincsbee in Lincolnshire, my first being last year, both hives were purchased because as a new bee keeper I wanted calm bees and the strain I brought from Lincsbee do just that they are great for first time bee keepers, I will tempt fate but to-date I have never been stung by my apiary’s. All my bees are Carniolan x Bucfast and would recommend them to new beekeepers. I was fortunate to speake to a work college who keeps bees, in 2010 and he introduced me to Lincsbee which was the best move I ever made, there was never any pressure to buy but after my first hive purchased I went back for 2nd in 2012.
