I have never been in this situation before..I always pre prepare for additional winter feed and tick along nicely normally..however this spring weather has been different to others..
I had loads of pollen coming in but little nectar over the past few weeks and now the weather has gone pants again..obviously with the pollen and fondant the bees are rearing brood..which mean the little darlings are ramping up on brood production..however I have got through my 30+kg of fondant and I desperately need to feed some tomorrow ..I am lambing at the moment and have very little time to drive for fondant and ordering online will be pointless..
Can 1kg bags of wet sugar save the day if my lady friend fails to source any supermarket fondant....sorry for this embarrassing post but I don't have quick access to fondant..
