Oh Dennis...I forgot to mention them....sorry! I took more pictures of the bees, but they turned out fuzzy. A lot of mine have emerged. I had some chew their way through the sides of the tubes, I guess it was because they saw a light? Herman made me two houses from 4 x 4 blocks so I am set; I hope they can find them. I placed the houses near a flower bed and my citrus trees on the shop deck where I have them.

I imagine the bees had quite a shock going from the frigerator to 80 degrees! LOL! I kept them in the shop the first evening inside a bf cage, and three had come out by morning. I took pictures and released them, not realizing the pics were not clear! This one was taken later on, it's not too bad.

Should I be able to see all the way through the tube if they all emerge?
