Moving Split into a New Bee Built Hive & Time For a Mite Wash! Bee Vlog #19, 2018

Watch me move my split into a new Bee Built hive. I'll also be checking for mites to see if I need to treat.
Welcome to my second year of keeping bees, where I plan to learn even more about raising pollinators and maybe even get a little honey in the process.

I love that you put the arrows to indicate where to look! I was looking around not seeing the cells & thinking I was a little crazy 😂

[@LatinButterfly]

Emmy, would you be doing a video on how the chickens are doing? And how you house them?

[@Exactpie1]

I love the bee vlogs. It's wonderful and I think it's encouraging for other people waffling on bee keeping. I'm allergic, but I do appreciate the bee's place in life.

[@caitlinveal5709]

No idea whats happening, but RIP little sacrifices. 😣

[@icansurviveuniversity.imra1405]

she needed to sacrifice thos babys to check if there are any mites. it's mite season and they need to be treated so the hole colony survives during winter 🌻

[@tialagno4748]

So facinating. I was hoping you wouldn't have to replace the queen . Sucks though they need to be treated for mites right now , I hope all goes well .

[@tiffthenerd]

Omg i thought the arrows were an ad that wasn't loading properly...it was like the 3rd one before i realized she's pointing at the cells. Duh!

[@sfalconer]

Another fascinating bee vlog! 🐝 We had a run in with bees yesterday, a swarm came to the outside wall of our house and decided that a gap in the upstairs brick wall into the wall cavity was going to be a good place to create a nest. Could hear them all buzzing in the bathroom wall and a few made it through the gap around the pipes into the bathroom. A guy had to come and smoke them out so that they'd go find a better place to start a nest :D

[@shannonpollmann7863]

SO glad you had them smoked and not terminated! If the future, you could also contact a local Beekeeper and they could potentially catch them. For some reason swarms are better, stronger workers.

[@vanessacarlyle8704]

Bee fanatic I understand this totally has to happen. There is a part of me that loves that you share every nitty gritty piece... but I didnt particularly enjoy watching the mite check.... it was a little sad. Again, I get the necessity of it. But it wasnt fun.

[@dougwilliams8602]

That’s my birthday. Last year. It’s 6-21-19 today. Enjoy your different videos. Like your bee videos best. You’re cute

[@moonjelliespodcast1855]

These lil bee vlogs and videos are so nice. So laid back and still informational. Thanks for sharing! I live in Utah which is called the beehive state and I've been considering beekeeping for a while.

[@Mewz123]

I don't own bees, and given my location (which doesn't have good enough plant life) I doubt I ever will unless I move...but these videos are very fascinating and fun to watch! I love how informative they are, and how much you genuinely care about all of the bees productivity and health. :D

[@siempreamor5149]

Good evening Emmy! 🤗 I hope your weekend has started off wonderful, as for me it's cold and raining today but all is well!

[@JackW42]

“Bee fanatic!” :P 🐝💚

[@laurametheny1008]

Wow. Amazing all you have learned and accomplished with them! You never cease to amaze me lady. Only wish I would have "met" you when I was younger and in much better shape. In every way. The inspiration is mind boggling. But my ability is not there.😿🐝 the very deserving bees have a wonderful loving friend in you as do all of us! Thankyou ever so much Emmy.💞💋✌Bee fanatic!

[@DreamyDuskywing]

Thank you so much for sharing your bee adventures! I’m learning so much and living vicariously through you! 😂 Those poor sacrifices! But they helped to protect their sisters from more mites! X

[@lillyroman978]

Will you lower the amount of boxes of the bigger hive since it has such a small population?... and would you take those boxes and use them on the other hives instead of buying more boxes for them? Because I do see like if they are newer, less used boxes. And are they expensive?

[@funwithfriends634]

This was a great vlog, I appreciated the additional info you included.

[@delisepalumbo6760]

I purchased a beautiful quart of local honey which is crystallized. I will still use it but can you share the best way to melt it for visual appeal? I have microwaved crystallized honey before but it recrystallizes fairly quickly and I read that this may not be the best way.

[@Youngpoet15]

Love the new roof. Would love to see a backyard tour sometime! How much room do you need for bee hives?

[@heathersmith8222]

I love your channel :) I took a beekeeping course and will have my own hives this spring. A question I hope you can answer, why do you have to reduce the entrance of the hive when the bees are not doing well?

[@BrokePhilanthropist]

So crafty

[@beanboy06]

dang these poor bees just can't catch a break!!!

[@joanneg4458]

Is a Flow style hive not easier/better for the bees and you?

[@tiffanyharris-santos6408]

Can you do a video updating on ypur chickens?

[@simopr09]

Hi, I have a similar hive as yours. The queens is not doing a good job. In May, the hive was on 3 frames(a purchased nuc). Now it's on 6 Frames. I can't requeen now! too late. Should I systematically treat for Varroa Mite?

[@kasilott4774]

Have you looked into the FlowHive? I'd like to see you review it. 💚🌻🐝

I'm definitely a bee fanatic!

[@Mr3Trois3]

Emmy's bee fanatic! Very interesting! I liked that you explained how hives work too, even though you probably already explained it in previous vlogs lol. Well I guess it's good we didn't get to see the bees die ^^" At least it wasn't for nothing ! :P

[@lillyroman978]

Also I LOOOVE LOVE these videos ❤😍

Awesome. Thanks for update Professor Emmy.👀🙏✌

[@terrylambert8149]

Why don't you do a video on how to make a straw skep?

[@grimslepers]

so fascinating

[@jmonta21]

You should do the powder sugar method instead of the alcohol!

[@gcr4674]

The powdered sugar method does not give as accurate of a result, which means the hives might not be treated when they really need to be, which in the end kills more bees than the ones killed by the alcohol.

[@Stephen-un8zd]

How are you not scared for your hands hahah

[@donbeissel2965]

That is not a nuc, it’s just too few bees in a full box. I would put them in a 5 frame nuc box. They build up faster when there is less space. I would replace the queen and the virgins with a mates queen. You are getting late in the year to mess around with colonies making their own queen.
