Hello from Norwich

[Canary Honey]

I went on a starter course last year, visited a bee keeping friend to help in his inspection and read a few books before deciding that bees would enter my life.
Received a nuc in March, and trapped a swarm last week

I have kept a partial record on video on youtube. Apologies, I don't have the best camera girl in the world.

We love having them now, they are the last thing we check before going to work and the first thing we look for when we get home.

welcome to the forum, but did the starter course, or your bee friend, say having a brood box with only three frames in it is ok???

dummy down that nuc, fill the empty space with something? your saying you don't want the bees to chill, yet your doing just that

(forgive me if your not the same canary honey on you tube,lol)

Thanks Cazza, ratcatcher and dishmop.
I am sure that I am making more mistakes than right decisions, and it could be some time before that changes. I need to build up a routine so that the right procedures become natural.
