2nd out apiary

S o yesterday I moved five hives from the allotments to the new 2nd out apiary, these were all swarms caught over the last ten days, one of the poly nucs which had the large prime swarm from allotment felt too light, I discovered it was nearly empty one opened later in the day, obviously the queen either didnt like it, and swarmed again, or I missed the queen, and the bees went back to original hive.

After I had finished and was leaving, the next neighbour along commented on how he had a big plot of land, and would I care to put hives on that too, so looks like a 3rd out apiary is on the cards.
