I have 2 hives, one I created earlier in the year as a split. The original hive is doing a sterling job and has just had its 6th super added!
The newer hive is coming along with one super and I expect them both to have a couple more on by the end of July.
The problem I have is too many supers on one hive which is becoming a bit unmanagable and a bit wobbly. Im thinking one option would be to remove a couple of the 6 supers and move them to the other hive (once cleared of bees). This will re-address the wobbly stack and help my back in the long run.
Just looking to see whether or not this is a dumb idea?!
