Thank you for your reply, I have no physical experience. I have been reading and joining groups. I have become more confused as I go along. the frames look bad, falling apart at corners. I have a new hive, my plan is to transfer the queen and as many frames as I can directly into the new hive. My concern is replacing the old frames with new ones later, still trying to figure out the best way to do that. Also, If I could ask you, I have read several different theories on moving a hive to different location. I will need to move this hive, it is in the place where a pole barn is going as well as it situated at the end of the property where most of the human activity is taking place, we will often be in their flight path. I would like to move it into a line of pine trees on the edge of a small orchard, this area is about a quarter of a mile from where they are now. Any advice on moving my hive? Thank you so much for your response, you are the only person I have heard from that hasn't wanted to just come and get it. Cindy
