Great video. I’d like to add, if after hooking the rope loop before throwing, you can use a double half hitch with the other end of the rope to the second hook. This way you can tie both rows on the driver side. It makes for quicker tying and untying. Not as many trips back and forth around your truck to get the job done. Great video. Thank you for sharing.

If you have this type of frames why then not making it 8 way mating nucs, 5 frames in one mating nuc is kinda a lot

Hi, I just established four four way nucs and I got some Problems. I installed bees in them, and in some of them the bees are just dead. I don't know why. In others, they are clustering on the lid and not on my frames. I mixed up bees out of honey supers for them. I gave them virgin queens.

I am in Southeast Texas and was shocked recently to find 8 out of 10 frames in my super already full of capped honey. The bees worked faster than me. I found myself running here and there to get extra supplies for more suppers and another hive I captured from a swarm. I also like the concept of single brood, mainly because it takes less time inspecting...

I've used pseudoscorpions for the last four years and I don't have mites. Also I personally as a hobby beekeeper neglect my bees, by neglect I mean that I don't go into the brood box and instead of weekly checks I do monthly. Also no other beekeeper gets anywhere near my bees and if I'm going to a communal apiary then I'm not going to wear anything that is likely to come into contact with my bees. I live in the Tyne Valley in North East England. It's cold, it's permanently raining, it's always windy and my apiary sits on a North facing slope.

Help please, I'm moving a swarm trap across my yard. It's a solid tall box with 5 frames and a lot of bees. I closed them up last night with 2 disc entrances set with the vents open. They are only 1 inch holes with small openings for ventilation. It will be close to 100 degrees out today. Can I still leave them closed in like this for 24 hours and open them up tomorrow morning? I don't want them to overheat but I do want them to reorientate so they don't go back to the other side of my yard. Thanks in advance.
@UoGHoneyBeeResearchCentre23 күн бұрын
Think about overheating vs orienting. It is very easy to overheat and kill hives. It's likely too late but give the bees plenty of ventilation next time. Cheers.

Once again, thank you for your well done videos. I have been very successful in raising queens this year and have more than enough queens cells to put into only a few mating nucs. How would I go about selecting the best 10 cells from the 40 cells available? Is there some characteristic of the queen cell that would indicate the health of the queen inside. I also wonder if those cells covered in bees on the graft frame indicate a better queen than those less covered. Thanks again

@lowtriggerweightjay7331Ай бұрын
Im a firm believer “less interference” and doing anything possible to help create an increase of Propolis amongst the hives. I started experimenting with log hives a few years ago. The log hive bees produced more propolis and honestly just look way healthier and are more active. I will always believe that Propolis production is a cure all for what ales bees.

📃 And your Lord has inspired the bees to build dwellings in the mountains and in the trees and in what they erect, so follow humbly the paths of your Lord and eat of all the fruits from their bellies comes a drink of various colors, in which. there is healing for people. Indeed, this is a sign for a people who reflect 📃

What? So you would prefer to learn from someone wearing a biowar grade suit and veil/mask? Unless you are attacking a hive at the wrong time, bees are not going to kill a person (unless they are Africanizes bees). If someone is serious allergic to bees, they should probably not risk keeping bees. It's hard to avoid stings. Stings are rare if you do it right.
