So nice to get away from the hate speech and president bashing, you sir are a joy to watch. Thank you for posting. Order up the rain for between 3am to 4 am. light rain...not any run off. right. One the cut out you did was that queen cells On the side of the box and some of the comb?

LOL, that was an honest mess, well owned. What can you do, when you have as many hives as you do, and time pressures, there is always going to be some embarras- honesty moments! Cheers for the fun Stay Safe!

Melt the wax and use it to paint inside of your boxes for the swarm boxes

I found with plastic queen excluders if you put them in your freezer for 2-3 days you can then tap or bang them on the floor and all the propolis breaks off like hard taffy.

What are the initials you have on your bee hives? I assume that MBC are your initials, but there are others on some of the boxes

My first experience with a queen bee I put her in the box with the bees for 3 days then I open her cage up to let her go in The colony she flew straight up and stung me in the eyelid

I have started using the queen excluder that has the wood trim around the outside . They work great BUT the hive beetle hide around the inside edge . I going to put caulking around the inside to keep them out . Have you ever tried that style of excluder and if so what do you think about them . Thanks for your video’s

I know swarms usually build out really fast. But the fastest one I ever seen one of my friends caught a swarm and it was a big one put in eight frame deep and they was about 3 in deep in the bottom not counting what was on the frames so I told him I'd put a box on top only two drought frames in less than 3 weeks they had all 16 frames drawn out with brood honey and pollen I thought that was amazing

G'day Mark, your not joking about it being a weird summer so far with cold days and short nectar flows and lots of swarming happening. I started 2020 with one hive and finished with 8 and just picked up another 2 swarms in the new year. How has the Mallee performed for you this year? Much flower being produced or very patchy like the box and gum over here.

Hello weak colonies you can feed, they will grow strong very quickly Give sugar and water (1: 1) in small doses. In the evening, when it gets dark, they will bring you some honey :)and where you have an apiary for bees, you know clean water I can't see the food in the frame, read about Polish beekeeping and you will gain knowledge that other beekeepers will envy
