I replaced the floor on box 5 today and moved the hive back a couple of feet onto a new level paving slab so that it no longer looks like a leaning tower. The floor was a bit of a mess and very wet on one side. No wonder the bees are on the other side.
I did the same with the hive next door (Tina's hive) replacing a solid floor with an open mesh floor.
The weather is gradually improving and I should soon be able to give the hives a full inspection.
