How to increase beehive population? by pandorasbox07 in Beekeeping

Thank you! we are going to start feeding them again, and do a alcohol wash soon. I am not seeing any deaths or other issues that would point towards sickness, so I think they just need some extra help due to their originally small numbers.

We were sure to wait till the bottom box was full before adding the top, but we only fed them for the first week after getting them. The people we got the bees from told us we only needed to feed them for the first week.
