I have to thank Johnny Murdock for the really cool shirts he sent me as well as the Pierce Team for giving me the hot knife to do this removal, an awesome product for sure.
It was great having the Three Amigos back together on this one, and what a beauty of a feral hive this one was. The good news is that after the removal was done and the bees were set up in their new hive, Good Time Charlie got his lunch at one of our favorite restaurants, Vera's. Thanks for watching. God's peace to all. Mr. Ed

Knife works great. Nice combs.

[@jessgreenwood262]

Your new tool is making the work a bit quicker and cleaner, good idea ❤

[@JeffHorchoff]

Unfortunately it can only be used when access to the top of the comb is available. Still, it does work great when that situation happens. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 600 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Jess. Mr. Ed

Guys I love watching y'all remove bees, I've learned a lot. I wish y'all would show what you do once you get all that comb back to the Abbey. You know getting them set up in their new hive. Framing it up and transferring the bees into the box. You mostly only show half the job. I love watching you and I love your faith, God bless you and yours.

[@JeffHorchoff]

In the recent past I have shown on videos what happens when we get back to the abbey with the bees and their comb. But now that you have brought it up, I will make sure I show it once again, stay tuned. Thank you for your blessings and for taking the time to watch. Until the next one, God's peace Thomas. Mr. Ed

You all are so fun! This is my favorite time of year, Spring...and Easter is my favorite holiday. Thank you Jesus! He is risen! Happy Easter to you guys. I loved it when you sent me some honey...that was so loving of you. And it was the best! Have you ever watched the crazy guy that similar work as you all on homes that have wasps/hornets? Don't know or understand his interest in hornets since they don't have honey...but he does a great service that is needed for his community. And he feeds their combs to his chickens and other farm animals...they love to pick the larvae out and it's great food for them. So smart of you Mr. Ed to mimic the spaces bees choose outside of bee box hives. Interesting content!

[@lorenrobertson8039]

Wow, March 4th was my daddy's 2nd Heavenly birthday. I have always though manna from Heaven must have been honey based...best thing in the world is honey!

[@JeffHorchoff]

I never had much interest in wasps, especially since they don't make honey. Still, I have seen several of the Hornet King's video. Happy Easter Loren, and God's peace always. Mr. Ed

What did you think of the brood pattern on those combs? How much would you think that the way they built their combs had to do with the ventilation? Liked that heated knife… worked like a charm, it looked like. Removals are always interesting. Never get tired of watching them. Thank you, Jeff.

[@JeffHorchoff]

The brood pattern was not the best, but since it's still early in the year, I know she will come around. As far as the comb layout, I'm sure ventilation had something to do with it, but it was strange to see the pattern shift.
