Top Bar Hive



The Long Term Reader of this blog will know I had one of these things which was wrecked by woodpeckers.
They are used a lot in Africa and one of the reasons they are popular is that they are allegedly easy to make, So I downloaded some plans and had a bash.
It wasn't too bad although I'll do somethings differently when I make the next one.

Although they are popular with the Natural Bee Keepers, I don't think they are too practical but its different and worth a go.
I'm not too bothered about any honey it may produce as I have other colonies that will hopefully do that for me.
