I've bought your queens..they are really strong producers..but didn't tolerate the wet climate here in Oregon..and they were more hostile than the Carniloian and native bees I use.

Angry bees hitting the mic. Sounds like reports of radioactive particles heard through a Geiger counter. Potentially as harmful, too! Removed an AHB queen today. Controlling the conditions; removing sections as I worked; worked out for me too.

Fred Dunn is a hero of the beekeeping world, and he turned me on to BeeWeaver bees. I have to buy a new queen every time one swarms and gets away from me, because of all the Africanized bees. BeeWeaver queens are a key piece in this fight. On behalf of the people of Carlsbad, New Mexico, Thank you.

Are u getting only resistance,or are u getting NICE,CALM bees that are Hygenic but not ONLY resistant,but Honey Producers that are still a pleasure to work.Alot of resistant bees are Hot or don't make Honey.If we ONLY breed survivors, we will have resistant bees but they will be hotter than hell and no fun to work and swore me or Tennessee to abscond a lot and usually known for not making honey crops. Now I have hygienic bees that do all and usually they don't start getting hot until the second or third daughter Queen.. but in my opinion selecting only Survivor stock is a big mistake, there are lots of bees that can't deal witth Varroa but have very good other traits to contribute. the thing is you need to get your Survivor bee bread a couple years to get the Wimpy ones out, that way they're not transmitting viruses from the Weeki wimpy ones to the strong ones that could fight it off by there self, but what's your yard is built up to where pathogens and viruses can't take hold on it no more because they're too strong of bees you need to start bringing some of the other traits back in just because bees don't have agentic Behavior don't mean that they don't have some other behavior that has been suppressed and can be brought out, if you have bees that store honey like crazy but can't winter can you breed them with bees that don't store honey so well but are great at wintering now you get both worlds....

@BeeweaverApiariesTexas6 жыл бұрын
Hi, Daniel, yes you can. I am attaching some instructions for requeening. You can also do the wooden or plastic cage and not expose the candy for 2-3 days, and go back and remove the candy side cork. This increases the time for the bees to realize they are queenless and get used to the new queen. In general, though our queens are accepted well. Thanks, ~Laura Weaver

Moving cells means we are going into big strong colonies very frequently, and leaving them open longer than normal. Over time the bees do get more defensive. A veil is mandatory!

Hi, Honey Bees Macro Close. The filming is done with a go pro so it much like any go pro video on the move - a bit wobbly. So far, it is the only we have thought of to have a beekeeper's view and include everything a commercial beekeeper does. If you have any other ideas on how to film and see what the beekeeper is seeing and be in the middle of hives we are happy to learn. Sorry it gave you a bit of motion sickness!

When I first tried this I had like a 90 Percent lose.I was afraid to tell folks that I was treatment free for fear they start the claim that treatment free people are the reason they can't control with chemicals.I have ordered my first queens from Daniel and will be incorporating his work with my own, TY Daniel for what you are doing for us all.

I have been using varroa resistant bees from YOU for the past ten years. I am amazed at their ability to deal with mites on their own. The newer Queens (within the last two years) seem to be performing even better, have there been some new and notable improvements? I am always "ready" to treat but haven't had to. Thank you for your commitment to this way of dealing with challenges facing our bees. Thumbs UP, all the best to you. The hygienic behavior, particularly grooming, is fascinating. Thank You.

I have been buying in Queens from you guys for over 10 years and have always been so happy to work with them. Bees that survive without heavy chemical intervention on the part of the keeper are my first choice. Thank you for all of the extraordinary work you've been doing and for taking the risk of allowing your bees to rise genetically partly through natural selection. For me, I will always select the Weaver Bees First and go from there. I recommend you to all of my viewers and to those who attend my seminars :) I am so happy that you posted this video so others can have a greater understanding of what you are doing and why.
