I love Mr Oliver's presentation about handling techniques. Ive watched it many times, and will continue to watch it probably at least once a year. As a new beekeeper, i wore a veil my 1st time inspecting my hive, and after that havent really bothered with a veil. There are certain caveats like in the winter ill wear my veil, and ill always keep it near by especially in a colony that i dont know, but i feep decently confident not using a veil etc and its mostly thanks to his presentation
Hemp seed flour as a pollen sub base. Its grown abundantly in Canada and could be very inexpensive once marketed for the purpose. The data shows its one of the highest in amino acids protein , easier to digest and process than soybean flour and has shown to increase individual bee longevity which is very important for winter survival.
A very nice post hive inspection sit down conversation between Randy and Sung. I didn't hear lots of new information, but basically, a thoughtful representation of Randy's approach to beekeeping. It always great to get wisdom and advice from highly experienced beekeeper, who's really devoted to improving the field.
I’m all about treating you have too or your gonna lose your bees I think it’s very important I hate when people say they are treatment free is because unless your stock is resistance I feel so bad when they don’t treat
@ well I would never sell you any bees lol if your dogs or cats get lice do you go treatment free too let them build a resistance to lice ? Might as well no difference if you really care about your bees your gonna do what ever it takes to keep them alive just like any other pet when you don’t look after you livestock or your pets you will be fined and you will lose your animals it should be the same when if comes to bees too
Great stuff guys👌 Keep up the stellar Varroa work Randy👏 Very grateful for the bee genetics lesson too❤
Ton of knowledge and experiences I just can't get enough of Randy

So interesting. You two guys are so important to keeping our bees healthy with all your knowledge. Carry on gentlemen.
The EPA bureaucrats have no authority regulating oxalic acid on Swedish dish cloths in a bee hive.
Go DOGE
Thank you
Looks like you have a nice place
I think he is a smart man I think you are a smart man too I follow you and Randy and I follow Canadian born Ian steppeler 🇨🇦🇨🇦
You both are vital to our beautiful bees. Thank you.
Trump will straighten out the epa

@@aaronparis4714 I don't need bees from you.
Tf and healthy ...killing it actually
That’s the issue hard to get the daughters to push out the same traits to many different drones hard to control and you can’t inbreed like horses 😅
