I am excited to see if my bees will make it through the cold Montana winter with this new hive.
Great easy to work hives, have 10 in our apiary with the oldest being 3 years of age, which only has some minor color fading. The round entrances are especially nice to keep open during times of overnight snow. Really liking the updated bottom board which now uses the same clamps as the brood boxes. Overwinter hive losses have been around 10% since switching to Apimaye and maintenance is by far less.
Got my order. As always, top quality beekeeping hives.
The Apimaye hive is the best thing since the Langstroth Hive was developed. It's great quality and I haven't had one bee drown in the feeders. I have been extremely happy with the convenience of having everything in one set up with the ability to move the hives if needed. I have not had to worry about storms blowing off lids ect. There is a lot to say! My only wish is that they would make an option to run all medium frames for us smaller women who really just want to use all medium boxes. It means I would buy more boxes and frames :).
Looks and feels really nice I have not installed bees yet but I’m looking forward to it.
