Warre Langstroth adapter top
We decided to give up on the Warre hive box method of raising bees.
The plan is to lure the hive
now living in one of our Warre boxes to migrate into a Langstroth
box with a hole cut in the top.
I attached a piece of wood on each side to prevent any accidental bumps.

Hi Anna, Good luck with your hybrid hive ware. I'll be following along to see how this progresses. Wishing you and M. a honey harvest this season. It's all about bees and trees for us this week end. Today, we split our largest(already three full mediums) and moved the o.b. hive outside (didn't want to loose it in a swarm). A second split will be carried out tomorrow after the remainder of the nursery order is in the ground. Then I'm making time to start a living willow pergola. A simple goal of getting its' main whips tucked in. Thank you for the inspiration you provided earlier this spring on living structures. Did you start your shade room, I wonder. ~Best
