Made it on site. Feeder jar was fine, about 1/4 consumed, left it in place.
The bottom board that this hive is using is a screened bottom board. It has a small bin that attaches to the screened area for collecting. Most of the time the bin is not installed so that ventilation will be better.
Yesterday evening my Dad put the bin on. This morning at about 11 am I checked the bin and found alot of wax flakes and pollen. I also found three varroa mites!!! So I will be looking into how to deal with that particular parasite.
