Thanks for your content. I have learned more this year from watching your videos and putting your fundamentals too use in my bee yard than I have the last 4 years combined. I lost all of my hives last year. But this year I was able to turn 3 nucs into 10 hives.

[@Jane-L.S.]

I'd like to share with you what works for me. I had just one small cup of worker bees and a queen to start with. No drawn out frames of comb. I quickly waxed the foundations I had with plenty of wax on them. Put all in the hive along with a gallon of 1 to 1 with pollen supplement. The hive did thrive.

[@conloncarabine6110]

Great content David!!! So much to get done in July, get the rest of my supers off, treat for mites, start to make splits and fix queen issues. Your content is always timely and pertinent. We missed you at the IL state convention in Quincy. Still a good event, but missed your wisdom there!

[@brianbennett4374]

Good stuff thanks for sharing with us 😊

[@CatSayHmmmm]

Thank you for always having a bee video that answers the exact question that I have!

[@thomaskoppenhaver2758]

Excellent video, thanks David!

[@michaelfortney7510]

Great info Dave. Very helpful and informative.

[@scotthenderson4376]

Great info thanks for the education helps so much

[@bandit3456]

great video. This is something my wife and I have discussed making comb. Thanks

[@robgarvin5634]

thank you David this video was awesome. I was concerned about this. thanks for your knowledge

[@stonemad35]

Thank you so much for this video. I'm a first year, so haven't seen much yet, this was very helpful.

[@577bluegrass]

Thank you!

[@UShehzaad]

Thanks boss. Your videos are really amazing. Watching your videos from Kashmir India.

[@LongIslandBeekeeping]

Thanks David im having that issue with 1 colony.

[@champinsoccer9]

My bees seem to be having trouble with the black foundation .. i see most of your big frames are yellow. Do you put a layer of wax on the yellow ones? Or are they just better to use ? Thanks for your video

[@OldManPotato78]

Great video. One question, when you add a new queen from the mating nuc what do you do with the rest of the bees from that mating nuc, do you add all of those bees as well and at the sametime as the new queen? Thanks

[@russellaymond312]

They were calm for a night shake.

[@ghhales]

David I am using frame feeders can I use you bee food with them, or will the pollen settle to the bottom ?

[@davidpotts3844]

I started a hive mid June with a Nuc Seems like a struggle but they are doing well. Now having soybean flowers. Queen doing well. watch the hive. they were not drawing now they are

[@eugenesimpson-zc1wp]

Did you add the queen also and did you pinch the old queen

[@jerry4256]

Any reason why you squeezed the frames together to one side?

[@TerryRomanko]

Is it my imagination, or was the queen we saw in this video on the small side? Reminded me of a relatively newly emerged queen after a swarm, supercedure, or split. Is it possible this hive is on the back end of a queen replacement, and she is a virgin or newly mated, but not laying yet?

[@SirSamsStinglessBeehive]

how to increase the population of bees? At what period of time should the bees produce lots of wax?

[@anthonypeterson3112]

How many lbs of wax are on a medium frame?

[@chadmcclelland7287]

Is it a good idea to replace the queen in July? Could she have just shut down to reserve resources?

[@jalalmm9]

Hello. What if i add pollen in suger syrop? Is that ok

[@patgooch1762]

Hey David, I learn a lot from your videos. I'm wondering why swarms are so good at drawing comb when the population of a swarm is older than 17 days, or so i think. Don't bees need to be a little older than17 days to fly. Thanks

[@apveening]

Bees can fly a lot sooner, but usually don't as they don't need to with their age appropriate tasks. A swarm also contains younger bees that only have to keep up with the rest of the swarm, they don't need to navigate by themselves.

[@lindasullivan77]

So does that mean most swarms have a lot of 12 - 17 day old bees to make comb?

[@kennethtitus3879]

I hear you saying that when you add a new frame of brood you have 7,000 more bees, however I have never seen a frame of brood that was completely full, so maybe 5000 bees in reality

[@bobyoung803]

Can u add wax to the frames will it help them

[@beek]

Yes I’ve made many video about how to do this. Here’s one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b168oaWEqN9lb8k

[@lynnhughes6350]

I just was scratching my head thinking the same thing …how do I get them to draw out my frames in July ??? Lol…thanks I’ll add some sugar water …1 to 1 or 2 to 1 ? Tell me what do you think …also I noticed your feeder hole was a little larger than your quart jars …go to your local hardware store and purchase a 70 mm hole saw ..it will fit perfect to the small mouth mason jar…
