My plans for my hives will consist of one deep body box, one medium body, and when its time I will add the honey boxes.
I got 2 complete hives from a man from Wilkesboro. He had a bunch of hive boxes laying around and he allowed me to take 2 complete hive for free. So my next step is to clean the boxes as good as I can and repaint them. I already made 2 medium body boxes so I will use them with what I got for free.
Once I have the boxes assembled I will have to wait until Feb. to order my bees. The bees come in a 3 lb. cage, which I will be purchasing from Brushy Mountain Bee Farm. Here is a link for their web site. They also have supplies for beekeeping. www.brushymountainbeefarm.com
