Beekeeping Quiz Alexa

I start my mornings with a quiz from Alexa. I have learned all of the US Presidents from 1-47 in order by using this quiz. Unfortunately they have removed this quiz. They also have a human body quiz, State Capitol Quiz, but also a Beekeepers Quiz. So when you grab that first cup of coffee in the morning, "Say Hey Alexa start me a Beekeeping Quiz"

Brood for sale?

I have a single hive and currently I have no queen. There is a supersedure cell soon to hatch but there has been no brood for some time. My hive is very weak. I am interested in purchasing a sheet of brood for my hive to keep them healthy. Is anyone interested in selling a sheet or can you tell me where I can get one.

Can you define "weak" for us? Do you have just a frame or less of bees, or a deep box full, etc.? Installing a frame of brood might not do them any good if you don't have enough nurse bees to care for them.

Looking for a mentor on the beach

Hi, I’m brand new to bee keeping and need some advice on where to place my hives. I know facing the hives to the south is optimal. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

set your hives facing south or southeast to receive the most sunlight, early morning sun is best, not too much shade, near windbreaks, elevate hives at least 12 inches this helps with moisture and pests, level your hives (front should be slightly lower to allow water runoff) and space them apart to allow you to be able to work them

Thank you for this! I've been unable to attend the meetings, but would like to connect with you all. Just about got scammed (I think) from Bees Heaven on Facebook saying their pickup is in Duck...but I'm looking at your website for actual recommended nuc sellers and planning to go through Nadeau Farms instead. Any advice for my first hive appreciated.
