Hive status: Overwintered from 2013 (2013 Hive 1 then)
Hive origin: 2012 Swarm from Alan
Queen type: 2013 Queen raised from eggs from swarm queen from 2012
Significant events/observations:
This hive overwintered in 2013 which was a brutally cold winter. Fed pollen patty about March 10.
4/8/14: Reversed hive bodies around April 8. Bees were all on 3 frames in the shallow, very small colony. Put an empty deep hive body above it, and removed an empty deep hive body (down to a shallow and deep, shallow on bottom).
4/16/14: This hive died out in early April. Too small, I guess.
