Am I the only one who noticed the kid playing with toilet parts?
So. Thank you for your video upload. I’m looking into possibly getting some
honey bees. But with them dying and all am I going to have to buy new ones
every year?
Can you keep small poultry and bees relatively close together such as in a
garden (roughly 25 by 10 metres) or will they provoke the bees? Just
curious because I would like to keep bees but wondering if it’s possible to
have both without one stressing the other?
Most likely the European honey bee is what you’ll end up with unless you
live in the Southern U.S. on down through Mexico, then you COULD wind up
with wild African bees. I’ve seen videos where people have made swarm traps
for feral bee swarms, then transferred the bees to their hives, or they
move a bee swarm into a box THEN to a bee hive. This is pretty cool stuff,
I think I’ll try to capture a bee swarm and start a hive that way.
Oh you freaking guys are awesome!! Thankyou so much for this wonderful
information. I’m just a ignorant woman and I love to garden and have tons
of veggies and flowers growing and love the bees that come around and feed
and polinate. I was wanted to start a hive just to have some extras around
to pollinate my veggies and this video was very informative. Thankyou so
much God bless you!

I want to capture a hive to start harvesting my own honey . Is there a real
point to the queen excluder? I see that it goes between your honey super
and brood area. I imagine thats because the queen will lay there and you
dont want baby bees in your honey ?
