Thanks for the video. I had no idea of how to add a package to a OB hive. I just put frames of bees with a q in it.

Great video!  Very educational.

Love your observation hive.  Is it homemade or purchased?

frames with a queen s a good way to load a hive too. And this is a purchased OB hive .Purchased for my wife actually.That was her original extent of bee keeping. She does help in the bee yard when i need it now and is a big help at extracting time.
