Nuc installation

Nuc Installation
60 ℉, sunny
Picked up nuc from Eli in Kidron. Italians with marked queen (bright pink). Not marked correctly for the year so we're not sure of her age.
Left entrance reducer in place with larger opening.
Added 1 gallon of 1:1 sugar syrup to top feeder (5 pounds sugar: 10 cups water)
Bees were very docile, no problems installing.
