Good or bad signs in front of your hives in the middle of winter?
Just a few ways to tell that your hives are alive during the cold snowy months. You still should check the weight and if possible, on a warm day (above 5 degrees) look inside very quick.

What temperature do honeybees set their furnace thermostat to in their hives?
มุมมอง 2414 วันที่ผ่านมา
Honeybees keep their hives at a consistent temperature year round, between 32-36°C (89.6-96.8°F). Outside of this temperature range, honey bee larvae and pupae won't develop and may die. #beehealth #mountainhoneybees #beekeeper #beekeeperslife #westvirginia #honeybee #beekeeping #beekeepingadventures #wildhoneybees
Beekeepers need to remember to do this, after a Snow/ice storm?
มุมมอง 14421 วันที่ผ่านมา
Something not to forget to do after a Snow storm is to clean off the bee entrances. Its very important to keep an entrance open for the bees to have defecation flights and for air circulation! #honeybee #westvirginia #beehealth #beekeeper #mountainhoneybees #beekeeperslife #beekeeping #beekeepingadventures #beehealth #hillbillyhippiehoneybees

    What's the expected price to start a hive and how long before you start getting honey?

      You will have the cost of bees, the woodware, protective gear and a few other expenses, depending on the area you live. We normally wait til the second year of each colony to pull any honey. This is for their benefit!

    I've never understood all the people who say that the open feeding causes robbing. It literally does the opposite. Great video. I use these bucket feeders as well and i have noticed that the bees become very hygienic and rub all over each other, and knock mites off. so, I went and added some essential oils with lecethin to the feed and have noticed many dead mites on feeder. seems like a good way to knock of mites from foraging bees and also any other antimicrobial, fungal , viral benefits

    Since they are using their front legs to "sweep", and dragging their mandibles across the surface, it looks like their cleaning up any particles that may be attached to the surface. In my mind of minds, I would think it would be particles of pollen dropped by foragers, since this behavior tends to occur more during a dearth. Just my 2c..

    Does this also help bees that are not part of the apiary? Do bees not part of the apiary even come around or do the bees there run them off? Sorry for the questions, I’m just learning and I find this stuff so interesting!
