Bee Man Vs Duck Box Full Of Bees!

Honey bees had taken over this semi-rotten duck box, good thing I removed them when I did, the thing would've just gotten heavier & heavier & eventually would have fallen, which would not have been a good recipe for happy bees.
At first the bees were a little defensive but once I smoked them some & exposed the hive they did a complete turn around.
I was able to frame up all of the beautiful comb they had drawn out during their stay in the duck box.
These bees wound up going to my good buddy Schawee & were placed in the swamp on 3,000 acres of land to do whatever they please.

So nice to see you posting videos again JP - your channel has always been a favorite of mine and I like many of your KZbin fans missed seeing your videos and truly wondered how you were and that all was well for you and your family! Loved this video and thanks again for your efforts, always entertaining and educational.

[@loritester4454]

Hello JP this is Johnny ,love watching your video,s missed them while u was off for awhile .that is good looking honey nice and gold color . I like the locust honey from around here but locust is dieing out around here . Keep up the good work . Lolo around here is east Tenn. about 20 mins from N.C line .

[@lucianamiqueo7577]

Oh! I've missed you and the girls, JP! Lovely to see you all again! As always, your videos make my day. Thank you ever so much! I've become interested in bees thanks to you and I always talk to my children (I work in an elementary school) about bees and how wonderful they are and how we should not fear them, but look after them. That's all on you, JP!

[@justwinks1553]

I am 48 seconds in an already completely invested. Love the new setup. Not dorky at all. Even if it was it would still be cute. Because it's you. Thank you for giving me something to watch while I'm in the hospital. Your videos calm me and actually bring my oxygen level up. And now I'm going to watch the video. Thank you for being you JP!

[@samanthasimental3788]

JP you are by far the best beekeeper I have seen. I watch others and they are good. But you are the bee whisperer. Than you for looking like a fool for our pleasure. I really appreciate and love the videos.

JP, I have to tell you, About 2 years ago I saw the video of you removing a swarm off the bumper of a young ladies car. No suit, no gloves and they were so gentle. 2 years and hundreds of bee videos later and my wife and I got our first hive last week. The adventure begins! Thank you.

[@RiddimWook10]

It's so crazy how they act like a collective. I know it sounds obvious at first (especally the way I phrased it), but when you started talking about them "bullying" you, it made me realize that each colony has its own kind of personality, that the whole hive acts as one unified intelligence (sort of). Almost like how the cells in our bodies work together to make something intellegent and sentient. I know, a little weird of me 😅but either way: Love bees, and I love how gentle you were with them. Awesome video, JP! Can't wait to see more!

[@amandaliberty08]

It's not all that weird, they are considered a super organism.

[@JPthebeeman]

Yes, Amanda beat me to it, I often refer to a colony of honey bees as a super organism as they are highly social & make collective decisions, regularly, inherently. You really can’t help but fall in love with these wonderful little creatures, at least most, the super aggressive ones, meh, not so much. 😉✌️🐝✌️

[@westernzoomies]

I would never of thought to try to keep bees, if it was not for you and another KZbinr. So I bought a box and all that I needed, except for the bees. It’s spring and I thought, hoping…praying for a swarm. I put honey by the entrance and so far I had about 25 bees enjoying their treat, but they all left. I watched your post about lemongrass oil, so I ordered some and I’m waiting for it from Amazon; hoping this works. The only thing I know about bees is from your post and another and I hope I don’t harm them by not knowing how to detect mites or the wing thing. Im anxious and excited about keeping bees… Thank you for posting…love how the bees are around you and hoping I have bees calm like the ones on the post.

[@Wolfogre]

I'm surprised how robust the honeycombs seem to be. I always imagined them to be really fragile.

[@JPthebeeman]

It depends on how old the comb is, very new comb is very fragile. The temperatures outside & in the void space they are occupying makes a huge difference too. If the combs are very warm they tend to be very fragile.

[@evilneko555]

I was worried you were going to go swimming with how close that pool was to you. Great video! It was pretty cool you got to frame up all the comb you got from them. Thank you again for posting video's! You always make my day.

[@katpillar4131]

I have learned so much about bees from your channel. I appreciate all the time and effort you put in to producing them. I currently am risking a fine for not mowing my lawn because I have identified 21 native wildflowers in my yard and the bees love it. I think because of the rain, I can push it another week before I have to mow. LOL

[@ShineKelly]

Another perfect colony pick up! Excellent job :) I like the new chest cam.. hope it didn't annoy you too much!

I actually got use to it pretty quickly & I much prefer the footage with the chest harness vs a head harness as we tend to move our heads a lot when we work, chest harness so much better!

[@NATURALBEEKEEPERSCOLLECTIVE]

Great Video as always JP.. Not sure what it is with old rotting duck boxes but yours are now the 3rd occassion I know of where this has happened, No actually 4th as I just remembered the one in Cambridge in 2012 One thing that always amazes me is how the bees know when to cut the bands off at the right time once they have attached the the comb to the top of the frame securely. The bees I rescued last have already chucked the bands out side the entrance all 9 of them. I checked inside the hive and all is perfectly attached in the frame. They only nibble the bands a little bit at first but soon as comb buiding is complete they all join in to get the bands off.
