This weekend I will put a slatted rack on Bermuda and probably give it another super. However, Destin (on the right) used to have the thickest biggest beard of the two hives. Now that it has a slatted rack, its beard is thinner because the bees are probably hanging off of the slatted rack inside the hive.
Bermuda's beard as a close-up shows you how thick the bees are, hanging off of each other and the hive.
Destin's beard is thinner. Bees there are probably more comfortable in Atlanta's 90 something degree night.
