All froze -- the bees went up to the top of the super and froze in a ball.

Frustrating because I had 2 italian hives, 1 carnolian, and 1 buckfast. Of them all, the supposed miracle buckfast hive went silent first. A wild italian swarm that my wife captured two years ago lasted into March but died off in the last cold snap.

Did you have two deeps for each hive?
