[QUOTE="tristan, post: 13342, member: 30"] :rolleyes: dumbest idea in history. you only ever get hives that you can inspect, which means they need to be alive. but i suspect that might not be true. they are organic beekeepers. you don't want non-organic bee hives, which makes me wonder if the story is in reverse. we have seen multiple crowds who have bought hives, only to find afb through out them. the same old problem, beeks skimping on beekeeping and letting afb get spread throughout their gear. then selling it off. remember that guy who put hives over the fence from us and they all died. we lost most of ours to afb. he destroyed his hives (so we where told) but he kept the supers, then 4 years later sold them all on tm.
