Converted a 10-frame deep into 2 “5-frame” nucs. It’s still one box, but entrances are on opposite sides. Last week at the monthly PMBA meeting, Harry Vanderpool spoke on overwintering with nucs and the success he has experienced. So I thought I would give it a try with a couple of Hives. Everything is built and ready to go, now I just need to decide on where to get the bees from and whether or not 
to let them create their own queen, or purchase a couple. Decisions, decision, decisions, but I am leaning towards letting the bees do what bees do best and create their own queen.
