Hi All, I have a question about splits and am looking for some input.
I went into my 2 hives today, one had 4 frames of brood but the other had 8 in 2 mediums, at least 4 solid with brood,, lots of honey and pollen. Bees packed in over all 30 frames in the 3 mediums.
My question is, on the really gangbusters hive, would you do a split at this time or wait for a second batch of brood to be laid? I really want to increase my hives and don't care if I don't get any honey this year. The temps are still in the high 20's- 30's at night but this week are going up to 60 every day. Last frost date is mid April
