I checked one of our yard hives as I thought the numbers I had reduced suddenly. However everything looked good, so, many brood and lots of capped. Was difficult to see eggs but pretty sure there was some in there. And after that Alex and I check the orchard hive as it had been several weeks. Harvested about 40 pounds of honey. Checked down to second deep and there were many brood capped. Guessing there's 50 to 60,000 bees in this particular hive.
