    I've recently moved to Colorado and want to set up another hive, but I don't have a clue when to have my package shipped. I'm used to ordering bees for the first week of April, but I'm sure it should be later here in Durango. Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the info... It looks like I need to step it up if I want another hive this year!

    I'm in Durango too. I'll be driving up to Utah to pick up 10 packages April 18. Although some here say shoot for the 25th of April.
