Took off the winter wraps 3 weeks ago. One hive was really strong and the other I thought was a doomed. Not a lot of bees. Some brood but I could not find my queen. Thought for sure when I checked this week it would be completly dead. But to my surprise it was alive. Found the queen, did some cleaning and treated for mites. I won't get honey from this hive. Guess either the queen started late in laying or they just got hit hard with mites.

Other hive was busting at the seams. No swarm cells and everything looked healthy. Put on a honey super so will see what they will do.
