i'm extremely jealous. i have a hive still sitting in the house because i'm short of funds for bees and the safety equipment for handling the hives once they've been populated.

your bees look healthy, their comb-building looks great.

here in NC there's a state (or county) paid person whose job it is to inspect and give advice on bee hives. it's a great free (taxpayer paid) resource -- they're likely to have one in your area, too.
