Can you perhaps rephrase your question?

Mellifera Crofter, Kitta, sorry for my English.

Vladimir Khomich my friend. I'm looking for on the Internet beekeepers who use such beehive. On your forum is not found. My question - Does anyone uses the hives?

What race of bee is he working with? They are very dark but the odd one had a yellow band.

Vladimir says about the breed - probably karpatka. Perhaps karpatka sister carnika. Vladimir exchanges with other beekeepers best queens.

The main thing unfamiliar was the additional slotted entrance just above the standard entrance. I assumed this might be a way to simply reduce the

entrance to stop robbing?

Apparently, it is a winter bottom box. Dead bees will not close the slot entrance.

Vladimir says about himself on his website. In Russian - http://pchelhom.ucoz.ru/

Correx! Would look good with Vladimir Putin on the front!

Sorry. This is not Putin. I do not understand this humor. Sorry.
