My friend who was visiting me last week, I had him open up the hive just so he could have the experience and feel more comfortable about things when he does it in the future (he plans to get a hive).
I myself opened up my hive today. Lots of progress. Lots of bees in the super building comb (the super is the second box that is placed on top of the hive body box--the super is for the bees to store honey). No honey yet in the super.
The point of all this is that I will get honey this spring.
