Frequently Asked Questions

How many beehives should a beginner start with?

Beginner beekeepers usually start with two hives. This allows for comparison between hives, helps in troubleshooting issues, and provides a backup if one hive struggles. Having more than one beehive also increases the chances of a successful beekeeping journey.

What are the basic supplies for beekeeping?

The basic supplies for beekeeping include a beehive, hive tools, a smoker, a bee brush, protective gear, and a feeder. These components ensure you are ready to care for your bees and manage your honey supers effectively.

How many bees can be in a single hive?

A healthy 10 frame beehive can contain anywhere from 30,000 to 60,000 bees during peak season. The population depends on the strength of the colony, available resources, and overall hive health.
