Hello OCBA, I have a friend who had a strong hive in UNC’s community garden,
however it appears to have been queen-less for going on a month now. Her
hive looks healthy and strong with plenty of food, but her population is
dwindling and she is in desperate need of brood. She asked me to post the
following for her:

I am unable to help her as I had just done a split myself, and have mostly
drone brood.

Also, she would like to be on the OCBA list serve, I think she can just go on
the website and sign up - is that correct?

Thank you OCBA!
