So glad I discovered double nucs/resource hives. The benefit of them is they build up quickly & of course share heat over winter. I don't use that big clunky middle divider. I cut a 3/8" piece of plywood to shape & use that. This allows 5 frames to easily fit on both sides.
@@aleksminskiy367 - The resources hives are my queen factory. I'll do splits & take the new queens from one of the resource hives. Then place new eggs in the resource to make new queens.

That will work well too.
Thanks for this! Lots of great ideas and easy to understand.
Thanks you, I try to be helpful. Feel free to share the video.
Where can I get that double Nuc box with divider and that top?

I am new: where do you keep your new mated queens while waiting for splits, etc?

Ugh, your camera work is making me sea sick.
