So far for us it has been really easy, we just stuck them in a hive, fed them bee syrup over winter and let them get on with it. In return they've given us a huge amount of honey, there is 44 frames with approx 1.5 - 2 lb honey per frame. We're going to take 18 frames tomorrow and extract the honey.

I don't keep Bees yet - I'm a bit peed off as it goes.
I went to a local pet store today and asked to buy some.
The chap said "We don't sell Bees"
I said "Yes you do! - You've got one in the window"

I keep bees albeit unintentionally as they have a hive in the cavity wall near the fascia boards. Going to leave them there for now as they are no trouble but if they start being a pest I'll get the local bee keeper around to move them on.
