I'm not sure why watching these videos of yours is so satisfying...maybe it's because it's something I could never do. I am deathly allergic and it would probably kill me. Sooo....I do it vicariously...through you. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to share your wonderful world of bees.

[@DreamyDuskywing]

When you lose the newly released queen, well just before you talk about it, she is behind the frame in flight.

[@DreamyDuskywing]

Around 9:20 you can spot her briefly near the empty space in the hive, bear the top left corner of the frame you’re holding

[@DreamyDuskywing]

It’s amazing to see how MANY bees are in the hive! When you don’t smoke them down you really get a shock to see the mass of grumpy girls telling you to buzz off 😂

I have been watching ALL the beekeeping tubes and the neat trick I saw about hive tools is to keep a big magnet in your pocket and stick your tool to that :)

[@ShinyNix86]

I love watching these with my kids. It's so cool & watching your videos has made bees seem less scary to my kids & far more intriguing. Both my kids said they promise to protect the bees now. Lol. It's cool how just seeing you interact with them taught kids something so powerful. Anyway, maybe I'm just overanalyzing it a bit, but I thought it was pretty neat. Thanks for the videos! We love them!

[@heutenachtistmeintag3328]

These bee vlogs greatly help me with being more relaxed around bees. Just the way you are talking about them and being exposed to the buzzing (The more aggressive bees are definitely a level-up). So, thank you for that :D

[@T289c]

Very good idea to split that big hive and use those valuable (like you said $45 dollars for a new queen) Queen Cells to make a new hive. You don't have to tear down the supercedure cells, the bees will do it once their new queen emerges.

[@stevebuckskinner5482]

Just curious.....Have you had any complaints from your neighbors about the bees?

[@emmymadeextras]

No, my neighbors have been wonderful!

[@cypher237]

I was curious about that... The spacing looks adequate, & it looks like there's lots of thick shrubs to buffer the hives... Plus she probably entails one of the tricks chicken owners use... Giving the neighbors some of the eggs, or in the bees case, some honey....🍯🤗♥️

[@wholoveskitty]

How do you not crush bees when you stack? They’re everywhere. ❤️

[@mariaraynor]

“I wonder if King Tut liked honey?!” X 🐝 😀 ❤️

[@lanabmakeup]

So glad I have Australian Stingless Bees. No risk of stings!

[@mayaline9002]

What’s their defense if they can’t sting?

[@cypher237]

So cool! Must be nice, lol... We have a ground bee around here in the Pacific NW, that is super docile & can sting, but doesn't unless you basically step on one... It's so fun to sit in the fields in spring with them swarming around & making little ground holes... I don't know if I could beekeep with them though?? I don't know if they even make traditional honey... All very fascinating though!! 🐝

[@lanabmakeup]

Diana Fronsdahl bees that usually nest in the ground are usually solitary bees that don’t and won’t live in hives. You might have seen ‘bee hotels’ around and they are usually for the solitary bees to use

[@puppsmcgee74]

Every time I watch your bee videos and you’re moving the frames and hive boxes around, I say aloud, “Oh no, baby bees, don’t get squished!” I’m so worried about them getting flattened under the weight and movement of everything. But I guess it’s a risk and a hazard of the job. :( Regardless, I love your videos! The whole process is fascinating and I’ve learned so much. ❤️

[@JDuWayne]

I found that keeping a notebook of things I do each week in the bee hives prevents me from doing stuff like losing the push-in cage. I use an app called “Beeplus” to keep track of my bees.

[@jenniferblanchard8972]

If you put a good strong magnet in your Jean's pocket then even thru your bee suit your hive tool will stick to the outside of your "pocket" then you wont loose it :)

[@karenamanda1958]

Yay! New video! 🐝 🐝

[@WebberAerialImaging]

Just a thought: Pull and end frame first, then remove the others. One end should provide you with more room to avoid rolling bees if you make it a habit to compact to the same side. The frame removed at 16:59 is how queens are killed.

[@claudineraya3379]

This is my first time watching Emmy's beekeeping video, can you please tell me what's those..uh.. super what.. i don't really know but those things that bees built at 8:12? I'm really curious 💕💕 I love this already!

[@Nick-jr6qe]

Emmy do the nitrile gloves actually prevent most stings? I might try them

[@shannancromie4736]

I have a question.... When you enter the hives and move the boxes around and set them back up, do you end up squashing alot of bees, it seems they are in the way when you are doing this. Thank you

[@cypher237]

I'm pretty sure she's really careful & if you're slow enough they move out of the way... There are probably some causalities, & that would drive me nuts!!! But I think there is a bit of a gap between the boxes as well, so they don't get smashed...

[@defaultuser1447]

I see that you've been using nitrile gloves a lot lately, but sometimes leather. Some people have reported better luck with nitrile even though thinner, because bees seem not consider them stinging targets. Also more flexible.

[@emmymadeextras]

I like not using gloves at all bit as you noticed I some time use both nitrile or leather beekeeping gloves. I like the thinner feel of the nitrile but the leather gloves include gauntlets that cover your wrists too.
