If you really want to have a hobby that offers the opportunity of effort and reward, become a beekeeper. On this weeks video I show the goings on of a week taking care of jobs that need to be addressed around the honey house. Of course, my initial intend was to render beeswax, but due to the number of jobs that kept cropping up, it turned out to be a bit more. Follow along with me as I take care of a few jobs that needed to be done as well as a bit of bee wrangling as well.
For those who are curious about the free giveaway, the link to the video about finding out what that's all about is this:

Now you know the only reason those bees played so nice is because of that shirt. I’ll let you have full credit for the swarm. You’re going to need the numbers since I’m still catching them.
I will admit, the bees were very nice, and it may have been because I was wearing some 628 Dirt Rooster merchandise, but I know for a fact that what amazed you the most was the size of the swarm. For you that was a monster swarm, but for me it was hardly worth keeping, way to small. Anyway, you just go on catching those "monster sized Mississippi swarms" and we will see who wins the taco dinner in just a few weeks as the contest ends at the end of September. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
You need to get the chickens to work! There ya go! It's cool to watch that guy that digs out hornets feed his chickens and other farm birds the nasty hornet larvae! Very satisfying to watch. After seeing all the hard work that goes into bee gathering, keeping, maintaining the hives, then processing the honey and wax...then the clean ups. My goodness it's no wonder why honey is so very expensive. I know for you it's a labor of love Mr. Ed. So the honey is sold in August...I will have time to save up so I can order me at least a bottle of it by the end of this summer. I remember as a kid us getting honey that had the comb in it...not processed except they had uncapped it I guess. But it was from local farms and sooooo good! I loved chewing the comb. I love the sound of the rain! and I really want a couple of the bee's wax lotion bars too. Going to have to start robbing my husband's spare change lol!
Thanks for sharing your few day of chores.
You are very welcome, and thank you for taking the time to follow along. Until the next one, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Mr.Ed Your videos keep us all happy at the homefront! Thank u God Bless u
Amen
Your videos bring so much joy to me, thank you kindly Jeff!❤
You are very welcome, and thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to watch my videos. Until the next one, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I haven’t been here in a while. But I just love Mr. Ed so much. So bright it just makes me smile as I watch.
Stay Blessed💛
Thank you so much for your blessings and return visit, hope to see you more often. God's peace Xyri.
Mr. Ed
Mr Ed. I love how you explain the whole process that happens, step by step so all your followers can see just how time consuming bee keeping is. Very informative! Thanks for sharing and letting me tag along :)
Just what my Friday morning needed... some time with Mr. Ed! Happy to see your smiling face! Much love to you and the lady bees! 🐝 ❤️🐝
How does one get 151 subs with ZERO content ? Teach me your ways!!
She’s a beauty!😂 I wish I could smell the wax. Never smelt bee’s wax before. Loved your videos, Mr. Ed God Bless 🙏💗
In another channel they made a screen with legs to drop into the melter after drawing off the majority of the wax, They add water to a level taller than the legs, and lower in the screen over the top of the refuse. Heat the tank up again and leave it sit heated for a couple of hours the wax being lighter rises up through the slumgum forming a layer on top. Turn off the heat and allow to sit then remove the hardened wax and dispose of the waste. They got several inches of wax from about 8 inches of waste.
those chickens are so happy
That they were, it was a maggot buffet. What chicken in their right mind would turn up their nose, I mean beak, to an offering like that? Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Makes for the best eggs when they get stuff like that. I've been loving your bee videos ever since I found them! Please keep spreading your joy as it is infectious to see.
you work hard! what an interesting day to watch :)

Mr. Ed
Also, I never knew it was possible to learn so much in such a short time! Thank you so much for providing curious internetters like myself with this incredible resource! I pray the Lord blesses you, your bees, and those you hold dear with all the best things you could wish for, and good health as well! Sending my respect and admiration from Toronto! -bri
Beautiful trees
If I can suggest to try and put your wax in a pillow case then boil. The trash will stay in the bag and wax float to the top clean
Years ago when I first started rendering beeswax in a kettle, I did use the pillow case method and it worked better than trying to strain the debris out by using a basket. However, because so much wax was still left in the material itself, though it did restrain all of the heavier trash, I have found that the open method, no confinement of the debris and using a strainer in the throat of the gate valve, has proven most effective for my way rendering the beeswax. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures 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 Valerie.
Mr. Ed
You really are the bee whisperer!
Thank you so much, but I like to refer to myself just as a bee wrangler, and guy who loves bees. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff I have been watching for a couple years, and will keep on watching!😀
Wow! You are such a busy guy!
Mr. Ed? If your name is Jeff, why does everyone call you Mr. Ed?
Thanks so much for sharing your activities in the Abby's beehive area! I love to watch you at work, and knowing where all the wonderful bees are! I even think I saw a bee on that group of berries that you were eating, so lovely of them to share with you!
The rendering work looks hot and challenging!
That honey looks soooo good!
Lots of love and joy from Dawn Lynn and Larry from Ottawa Canada
So happy you enjoy watching the videos, thank you so much for taking the time to watch them all. My name is Jeff, but I go by Mr. Ed on my TH-cam channel. It was a name given to me when I began working at the Post Office back in '82 and I was called that for the entire time I worked there, 27 more years. When I retired and began my TH-cam channel that's the name I chose to call myself. God's peace to all of you.
Mr. Ed
I would like to see how you draw out a frame to be used at the beginning of the year. Do you pour the wax over the board and then press out the Hexagonal shape of the cells?❤❤❤❤
Stay tuned, I'll be posting a video very soon on how I wax the foundations. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff --Awesome.
Mr Ed! You always have such a big, beautiful smile! It makes my day anytime I see one of your new videos has been uploaded!
Giving those chickens a sweet treat...😄
A maggot buffet....a real chicken treat! Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Your joy is contagious! 💜So glad to re-find your channel and catch up on these videos.
Does the honey next to the palm fruit taste sweeter? Do you grow specific plants around the hives for the honey?
Because our honey is blended from all the yards where our bees are kept, there is no distinct taste to the honey. However, each hive can have a distinct taste to the honey that comes from it as the source of nectar determines the taste of the honey. Glad to have you back and watching. Until the next one, God's peace Lacey.
Mr. Ed
This just confirms it. While I like when you tend to your livestock, the "processing" videos are my favorites.
Among the pleasures they provide is the inspiration of ideas it gives me.
If you would indulge me while I share.
With your torch usage, two things I plead you do for added safety--
1. Spark lighter. Rather than the butane lighter. Safer for your hands. And reliable even in windy weather. And cheap. And it will last for decades.
2. Propane tank/bottle. Rather than a plumbers bottle, get a camping bottle. Shorter and wider base. Much less of a tip risk. And the torch valve/nozzle should fit the thread.
And with your cleaning frames and foundation, I don't know what sort of clever system you have. My experience with pressure washing light weight stuff is the frustration of pushing things around inadvertently and lots of bending with wand in hand....
3. What comes to my mind is whether your kettle can be put to use. It is a beautiful sink tub. Dip foundation and frames into the water set to whatever temperature you want. Scrub and wipe as required.
Just my thoughts. Hope it helps your thinking somehow (like your cardboard box trick while wiping out trays).
Until next time, thank you.
I really like the idea of the spark lighter, and I will be getting one. As far as the bottle shape, I want to use my crawfish burner, it has the same burner and the base is a tripod, very sturdy. Unfortunately, it still is in storage but you will see it the next time. And for the pressure washing, check out the video link below, it shows a fixture I made that works very good. Thank you for your suggestions, your concern for my safety, and for taking the time to watch my bee wrangling adventures. God's peace Barbe. Mr. Ed

That is propane is it not?
I’ll see you in Canton. Driving in from Fort Worth.
Awesome! Make sure you come and introduce yourself, I'm looking forward to meeting you. God's peace Brad.
Mr. Ed
excellent ending lol what a prize lol
Just say the word, and your name will be entered, it's still not to late. God's peace Misty.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff I am in Ireland Mr Ed customs may actually send a note lol:) and bill to clean it :)
Been away but back now, watching from OZ. Great information and a lift to the spirits watching you, Thanks.
So very happy to have you back, thanks for returning to watch. God's peace.
M. Ed
The chickens reminded me of a scene from the movie "The Music Man",. I think the song was called "Pick a Little, Talk Alot", with all the ladies gossiping up a storm!!! The movie with Robert Preston in it. 😁😂🤣🤣
I can never get enough of videos of you rendering wax. Paired with your voice and optimism, they are so soothing to listen to.
Thanks for another great video! Just registered for Canton! See you there!
Looking forward to meeting you, see you there. God's peace Andrew.
Mr. Ed
all bright and shiney in that new bee suit . you deserve that epa warning
Thanks for noticing. God's peace Greg.
Mr. Ed
Rendering the wax - my favorite part of the harvest.
Enjoyed this video. You have a good setup for processing honey and wax especially your hi tech maggot removal chickens.
When chickens are around, the maggots don't stand a chance. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Ladson.
Mr. Ed
Always enjoy watching you work LOL!
That's a lot of good wax.
It certainly was, but wait till you see next weeks video. I rendered a bunch of the wax a second time to clean it up, and wound up with almost 60 pounds of it. Stay tuned for that one. God's peace Ray.
Mr. Ed
Honey harvest and beeswax rendering are some of my favorite days :) thank you for sharing :)) 🐝
My goodness me you work hard. X
Love seeing you and getting all that wax done. God bless you my friend.
Beautiful wax. Enjoyed the video. Visited with a monk at St. Gregory’s in Shawnee about their hives yesterday and bought some honey and gifts at their shop. Really nice. Hope your Texas trip goes well. I’ll try to go. Thanks and God bless.
When the day comes that I visit you, together we will have to visit St. Gregory's. It's on my list of "to do" things. God's peace Gary.
Mr. Ed
Always enjoy you and your presentations on how you process honey and the wax bees make. You are a very busy man there at the Abbey!! At the end of your video I had to laugh!! Maybe the DirtRoster came by when you where busy?? God Bless
Thank you for all you do for beekeeping. I look forward to seeing you at our conference in Canton, Texas next month.
It's going to bee a lot of fun, see you there. God's peace Ernie.
Mr. Ed
How do you stop your wax from losing its aroma and turning a darker color? Water boils at 212°. I've read:
Beeswax begins to melt in the range of 143F - 151F. At temperatures beyond 170F, beeswax loses its aroma. It will also begin to darken in color. The flash point for beeswax is in the range of 400F.
The aroma is not lost after the rendering, in fact, the rendering brings it out. It is only after a period of exposer to the air that the smell of the wax begins to wain. As far as wax getting darker after it is rendered, my guess it is because of exposer to ultra violet light. I have rendered blocks of wax that are 8 years old and still maintain their beautiful color. God's peace Mark.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff I guess your information is the difference between practical, years of experience and someone's chemistry book learning.
That wax would make some nice candles for Requiem Masses!
I think the thing we forget is Jeff is a volunteer if I remember correctly. What a servant of the Lord.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for watching, it is all greatly appreciated. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Buenos días.
Muy interesante el vídeo. Instructivo y claro en el mensaje, todo se aprovecha en apicultura.
Una aclaración. La palmera de la cual comió un fruto es en realidad Butia Capitata o más bien conocida como "Butia"
Saludos desde Uruguay.
Muy feliz de que hayas disfrutado el video y lo hayas encontrado instructivo, así como también por dar el nombre de la palmera. Además, gracias por mirar, y espero que veas más de mis más de 500 videos de aventuras de lucha / rescate de abejas y déjame saber lo que piensas de ellos. Por cierto, publico un nuevo video casi todos los viernes por la mañana y espero tener noticias tuyas pronto. La paz de Dios Óscar.
Sr. ed
Those blocks of beeswax were a beauty, sadly I can’t be at the stage live. See you next time.
Thanks for the tip Jeff on how to scrape the frames
You are very welcome, and thanks for watching. God's peace Marten.
Mr. Ed
Yeah! My favorite!! So relaxing to watch the rendering
All of Creation for the Glory of the God. The Joy and Peace of the Lord to you my Brother in Christ. Ty for sharing your time, Blessed Days...
Well done 👍👍👍. Thank you for sharing. Be safe🇨🇦
Busy as a bee, busy as a beekeeper. Thanks for sharing.
Nice job Mr. Ed! Thanks!
No thanks on the prize Mr Ed. Thanks for another great video.
Very disappointed you are not interested in the prize, but ever grateful for all the time you take watching my bee wrangling adventures. God's peace Angela.
Mr. Ed
Mr Ed.
I have an idea. It seems to me that the propane bottle gets quite expensive . So , my idea is a small hibachi grill with hot coals and two spatchlers. You can keep swapping them out all day . The good news is , you can use the propane bottle to start the coals. Lol. Just a thought. Awesome channel.
The queens can't hide from you!👸
sounds like a solar powered 40ft refer would be a nice!
I'd love one of those! God's peace.
Mr. Ed
As a first year beekeeper i caught 3 swarms this year. keep 3 growing up until last month when i learned why you don't put small swarms with your bigger hives one got robed out. The other two or working on the second box so far so good. Between yours and Dirtroosters videos I caught the first one with the neighbors watching and told them i learned it on TH-cam. LOL Grate video as always!
Love this video Mr. Ed. I think maybe because we get to see how things side track you and it wasnt focused on one particular task. God Bless brother
Thanks for reminding me about the dead outs I need to go out and grab 😂 They’re probably full of surprises by now haha
Just trying to do my part to give a gentle reminder. God's peace Aaron.
Mr. Ed
Man those chicken's be having a feed ❤
Happy chickens make great tasting eggs. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
How do you keep your bees from going after the wax from the suppers?
I don't do anything to prevent it. They simply won't try to steal it. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures 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 Scott.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff absolutely love watching your post. I keep my frames around 100 yards from nearest hive and the frames have a constant flow of bees on them.
A brand new Bic lighter?
Impressive.
No, it was one I found on the ground someplace. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff it's still shiny. You found a new lighter.
Thank you Jesus. Late swarm but I too can’t ever say no to those calls. That’s for your time that you so freely give us each week.
Thank You Mr Ed!!!
hey mr ed, since most kinds of insects can survive freezing, are you not scared of reindtroducing those frames to that swarn hive?
The freezer will kill any moth larva and beetle larva as well as the eggs and adults along with it. Thanks for watching. God's peace Sal.
Mr. Ed
God Bless Mr. Ed great video
Would dipping in boiling water do the job?
I have used boiling water, and it does work....mostly. However, the really tough dirt will not be removed and hard scraping needs to be done. Fire is the easiest way. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures 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 John.
Mr. Ed
Jeff, when scraping the brood comb, why not just remove the brood comb and leave the untouched non brood comb areas for faster work next year?
It still would attract the moths as the smell is on the foundation as well as the comb. Good question. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Great way to start my day, thanks Mr. Ed!
We have one of those here at the farm. The honey bottler contraption.
I don't know how to use it yet, but this video made it less scary.
For the last year or so, I just get a pot and stick it under the extractor drain. I scrape off whatever floats up, and fill up a jelly jar.
I only do this for certain types of honey.
But yeah, the bottling room is different.
Edit:
Those wax worms(waxies) make excellent fishing bait.
They sell for 7 cents each.
And that's a LOW price.
I know they make great perch bait, but I like watching the chickens go to town on them as well. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff
Yessir. They didn't go to waste.
I don't have chickens, and even less time to mess with them.
They go in the burn barrel.
Smells like steak when they cook.
No joke.
Edit. The burn barrel has ashes in it. It doesn't have to be lit to kill them, only dry.
Hi Mr Ed, love your video’s 🐝
Educational & great to watch
Thank u Bev x God Bless
PS: I hope u don’t mind, I mentioned u & ur friends, 628, Yap & JP, in our other YT channel video(AnimalsWeFind)because we stumbled across a hive in a tree… what a buzz!
I have a jelly palm in my yard. And I think my girls use the soja palms I have for there propolis because it is a lime green.
Green propolis? You sure that's not kryptonite. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
If it is that means I'm not superman, because it gets all over my hands.
Yours thank you Jesus t-shirt is really cool around the 22 minute mark by the way can we get those anywhere :-)
That one, along with another one, were designed and made by one of my viewers, I really do love it. Thanks for watching. God's peace Kurt.
Mr. Ed
If you were to put a block of wax out in the bee yard, would the bees scavenge that wax to build fresh comb? I know it takes a lot of pollen to make the wax. This could help young hives get a jump start. Or am I misled in my understanding of how it works?
The bees would not be interested in the block to scavenge, the block would hold more interest to moths that smell the old brood that the block was made from. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 500 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video almost every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Josh.

Hey Mr. Ed , did I win the fabulous BEE suit y'all giving away ?? 🐝🐝🐝
Not yet, the drawing will be done in another 2 weeks, stay tuned. God's peace Ron.
Mr. Ed
FYI, you should get an electrician to install a switch for your pump outlet (tell the electrician it’s for an electric motor, not just a light, so they can select the right kind of switch). Outlets aren’t intended to connect/disconnect live loads, as a small arc happens each time. This causes damage to the outlet and plug, and in the worst case, can result in either the plug and socket welding together such that you can’t disconnect it again, or in a poor connection that overheats and could even cause a fire. The risk is small, but so is the cost to install a switch.
I've already talked to an electrician about putting a switch on the pump, we just have not gotten around to doing it. Hopefully the next time the pump is on a video the switch will have been mounted. Thanks for watching and helping out. God's peace Antonio.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Excellent, safety first! Take care!
Hello Mr. Ed, do you sell some of the products like honey? I couldn't find any merchant/store links on your channel. I would love to buy and try some of it with my family. Thank you for the amazing content you constantly share with us viewers.
As long as you live in the US, I can mail you the honey, I do not ship it out of the country. If you'd like to buy some of our Abbey Honey, I'd be more than happy to send you some. The cost is $10.00 for a one pound, plastic bottle, and $10.00 for shipping. If you want more than one bottle, the shipping cost is still $10.00 for up to 2 bottles, but each bottle is still $10.00. As soon as I get your check, I will send it out. Make the check out to St. Joseph Abbey but send the letter to:
Mr. Ed

St. Benedict, La. 70457
If you'd like, I'll even sign the bottle. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks for watching. God's peace.

Clean up that wax and then put it out in a solar melter and get it sunbleached. Makes the wax more valuable
Thanks so much for the tip and for watching, I do appreciate it all. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Good video Mr.Ed. when will we know who won the suit? Looks like it would make a good loaner!
I'm hoping to announce the winner in about 2 weeks. I'll go live to do it, stay tuned. God's peace Howard.
Mr. Ed
Amazing video, I have always found your videos fascinating, entertaining and educational. Do you keep all the wax for use at the Abbey, or do you sell some (if any)of the surplus wax to be re purposed by others. Gods peace to you x
Thank you for your blessings and kind words, they are greatly appreciated. The majority of the wax is given back to our bees, but I do supply Monk Soap with some to add to their candles and lotion bars. Thanks for watching. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
How do you "dip" the foundations?

One quick question how do you clean the frames ,when the girls really glue them on the foundation's and get them ready to insert the clean foundations.
A good hive tool is the best cleaner for the frames. That and a hole punch to clean the tracks. The frames don't stand a chance using those tools.....and a lot of elbow grease. God's peace Jackie.
Mr. Ed
I love this process
thank you JEFF
Today I learned that wax moths prefer wax with brood and/or pollen. Does storing them in a bright location also help deter any type of wax moths?
Since moths don't like light, I think storing them that way does deter them a bit. Thanks for watching. God's peace Michael.
Mr. Ed
Great video
What does the melted wax smell like? With all the bee parts in it?
Love from the Netherlands!
To me, I say it smells like a clear running stream on a bright, spring morning. Thanks for watching and smelling. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Why wouldn't you put those 17 boxes with brood frames back on your strongest hives to guard?
Hive beetles love hiding in places where bees don't patrol. Adding empty supers to a strong hive only weakens the hive as now bees have to patrol the empty box to guard against the hive beetles and the wax moths . Good question. God's peace Luke.
Mr. Ed
Feeding all those maggots to the chickens was a great idea. Talk about the circle of life.
I’ve had a lot of bees in the garden this year as I scattered a lot of wildflower seeds. Since the awful heatwave which lasted several days, I haven’t seen one bee. So sad and I just wonder if many bees don’t make it when the temperatures soar. Tku for another interesting video Mr. Ed. Blessings.
I suspect it has more to do with lack of water than the heat itself. Hopefully things will get back to normal. God's peace Mary.
Mr. Ed
I have Water Lettuce covering a good portion of my 6 ft diameter, kiddy pool pond. The bees and many other insects, land on the floating plants and safely drink at the leaf bases where pond water is accessible. Dragonflies are especially entertaining because they swoop and hover over the water, then land on the cattails to rest.
You're such a joy to watch!! #godisgood
Nothing like fresh honey that's for sure theirs some folks around here in Indiana that have some really good honey and sometimes ya get honey combs and man oh man can ya ever taste the wild flowers in some them they're so fragrant and it's like wow so good tasting
Do you know why the gift shop keeps selling out honey? Because we are drooling watching these videos!
I loved the chicken montage.
+1700👍🏻🐝🇧🇷 Excelente solução para as larvas de traças e besouros!🐓
How do you remove the wax from framed...
I use a hive tool, it is what I have found the best tool to use. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Hi Mr Ed. Just a quick question......does the melt temperature kill any bugs, eggs of bugs etc that might have made it this far?
Once the wax hits the water in the kettle, the 212 degree water kills everything. God's peace Stew.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Thanks for that......learned something new today!
have you ever tried a flow hive? i know you need the wax harvest for soap etc but the flow hive seems to be much less work. always wanted to keep bees so watch lots of vids :)
Flow hives may be an option for some folks, however, they are very pricey. I did have one years ago but it is not a good fit for our operation. Thanks for watching. God's peace Mark.
