@audayhussain2 An overwintering hive is usually either 2 deeps, or 3 medium(Illinois) boxes, or one deep and one medium( or shallow).. So, if you don't have this many boxes, you will need to add another box. If you already have enough boxes, you probably don't want to add more, assuming you are past the main honey flow in your area.

@BeeHealth(Farjan, et al. 2012. Supplementation of the honey bee diet with vitamin C: The effect on the antioxidative system of Apis mellifera carnica brood at different stages. Journal of Apicultural Research 51(3): 263-270.) for vitamin C issue

holy krap thats alot of bees

[@BeeHealth]

@audayhussain2 I would certainly not add Vitamin C. I don't know of anyone that has tested this for safety of bees. Just mixing table Sugar and Water is safest thing to do. Then don't put on too much that it will ferment before they eat it.

How come they do not sting you??? And you holding them with your bare fingers?

[@davidegriffiths1]

@audayhussain2 you can as long as the colony is strong enough

I would have been stung 20 times, bare hard, he's a brave man, What kind of royal jelly and where can I buy it? Wilbanks has a great name. How do you aim at making many more drones? How many green frames for drones? How many bees do you need in a queen bank?.
