Hi Mr. David...my name is Joshua. My Grandpa was Stan Holloway, he was a really well known bee keeper here in Florida. We lost him last year from Agent Orange from Viet Nam a long time ago. He always took our phones and stuff and made us watch your videos. The things he tried to teach us went pretty much the same as what you do. He said to watch your channel because none of us boys could pay attention to what he was saying. He had hands like old callused ham bones and when one got the back of your head, you paid attention. At least after your head stopped spinning. Anyhow, this year we sent over 2000 boxes to California, we started splits and making queens in February. Just wanted you to know that we all still watch because he told us that when you think you know everything, go back to the beginning and try to learn it all again. Then try to use your head. God gave it to you for something besides a target for me...a lifetime of knowledge that was shared with all. So anyhow, we're still all watching you. Thanks so much...we still keep all his TH-cam stuff...
Hey David,
I bought one of your Queen marking kits and today I marked my first queen. You were marking Queens in the store and gave me a demonstration.
Also my packages are doing great.
They Are gentle.
You are a great teacher. Good videos.
Thanks
Thank you Mattie so much!!!
My bees came yesterday. I put them into their new home almost at dark. Came home tonight to put the top feeder on. Bees were going strong, even though it began to rain. These are good bees...though, I don't thing they were
"gentle" last night...hahaha. A bit pissed off really. Much happier this evening.
Great video!! I'm really looking forward to getting more of your bee's here soon.I really like how gentle they are
I like this method! Full frame of capped brood. 8 hours. Move momma. Add mated queen.
Yes, that's right.
I know nothing about bees but these videos so interesting
David, beautiful video. Love watching you do splits - it is simple and magical at the same time! Now i see you have a lot of questions waiting for you - good luck!
Its getting hard to do splits in my old age, not near as flexible lol.
@@davidhaught84
Your old age? LOL
Sir you are still entirely too fit to declare yourself old! Keep it up, you will be 80 and i will tell you the same thing!
@@julieenslow5915 Thank you so much Julie!!!
@@davidhaught84
You're welcome. But you do the work!
Good stuff David thanks for sharing!
That NUC was packed.
These winter nucs are bout all ready to split.
Would the single framed nuc that you made a split with, survive without a queen and make their own in time?
If say for instance you werent in a rush to queen right the hive?
Hey just recieved 3 queens from you last week did splits and installed them waiting and anxious to check them.Thanks
pro tip : you can watch series on KaldroStream. Been using them for watching all kinds of movies lately.
@Grey Salvador Yup, I've been using KaldroStream for since november myself =)
I saw your comment on SteveO's video and liked your style

Great video. Great info.
great video
been sugar water feeding in mariposa California
good stuff david im jelouis cant do that up here yet
Got email. Tracking bee's. Thanks David. Take care buddy..
Thank you so much.
Can we just add a new grafted queen cell to those new split instead a mated queen ?
thinks dave
Did a second inspection on 8 frame double deep. Last week saw drone cells and stacked with capped and uncapped brood. Yesterday they are a little noisy and poppin of the frames. Lite smoke or heavy just seemed to make them pist off. Any suggestions? Drones have hatched out. Even saw larvae pulled out of hive by worker.
I enjoy your videos and I'm very grateful you share so much information. I did my very first split this evening and I'm hopeful all goes well. So I never have been able to find my queen, i see eggs and larva though. So after some neglect and procrastination I checked yesterday and my girls were packed and had three queen cells and one capped! I took the frame with the capped cell and a frame of stores and a frame of brood and just moved them into the nuc. Then gave them 2 empty frames to build. Also I shook a few frames into the nuc (I looked and looked but never spotted my queen). Then moved the nuc about 20 feet and faced it the other direction. Be brutally honest... anything I should have done differently? Anything I need to correct tomorrow?
Watched your video - my hive is packed to the gills, must split, but for me to get a queen is $50. I saw some frames with queen cells, I was going to take those out to start a hive. Any thoughts?
what plants /trees are good for a bee yard ? I checked my 4 hives and they have no honey stored. Its kinda of surprising since im in south Texas and we dont really have a harsh winter.
David, why don't you let the new colony with the most bees make the new queen? In other words, why not let the three fames of bees make the new queen? Sure that one frame had a good population on it with new workers emerging, I'm just wondering if you wouldn't get better bigger cells from the larger colony. Also why not flip the new entrance 180 to encourage returning foragers to go into the new smaller colony?
Hey Barn yard are you guys still only treating with oa vapor or do you use anything else to chemical wise?
I’m afraid to split right now because our temps are fluctuating so much. Freezing at night, highs in the mid to high 40’s during the day. Still light snow. How much die off do you have after you open a hive up when it’s colder weather? I seem to get a lot more than normal after opening up a hive to inspect it.
Why cant you let them re queen themselves instead of introducing a new mated queen? Besides being faster of course.
Well the time factor is a pretty big deal if you're trying to make a bunch of splits. If he didn't add the queen eight hours later and just allowed them to make their own it would be over three weeks until a new one started laying and three more weeks until those eggs emerged as bees. Also another frame with eggs, in addition to the frame of capped, brood would be required so they could make a queen. And all that would be for nothing if you didn't end up with a laying queen after three weeks. I make splits like that if I have to and don't have a queen available but adding a laying queen can really improve your odds and you don't lose all that build up time.
@@tifreire1 Thanks for your information, I appreciate it.
How do you figure how early you can split and have them raise a queen? Look for drones? Average day/night temps?
Check to see that you have plenty drones, and night temperature above 40
I have received my package on Sunday 3/29/20 wasn't fully prepared I installed them without adding any pollen patty or syrup I hate to disturb them at this time until queen is released will this be OK? I have last year frames in with comb but no honey I let the proper procedure for installing slip my mind and then I closed the box and thought about it the next day
Dave, have you ever done a small hive split?
How many splits can you make from one of your 5 frame nucs? FYI I live near Decatur Al.
Is the shop still open with all the shutdowns? I'm heading through in 2-3 weeks to my son's in SC, and I'd love to stop by if you're open. :)
So I’m a new bee guy.. how often should someone split? Is it the amount of bees in the box and the amount of new queen cells that tells you?
I like my orders
Is this for Nuc purposes only? Why not use a ten frame and build up?
first Swarm trap catch of the year 3/28/20 N.E. Texas
Kinda random-how long are the treated 4x4s you use?
The split that you just made the full rack of brewed. I missed how is the queen. Going to be introduced to the split. Will they make a queen or will you put a queen in.
Start at 6:05
We will introduce a mated queen. You can do a walk away split, but use younger eggs.
crazy
small hive beetle at 2:44
I killed it.
How or can you do this without buying a queen? Will the new hive make their own?
When do you treat with
OAV?
Not till after honey flow, usually around July.
What if you get a cold snap with 1 frame of bees in your split?
Good question, mind if i hang out here myself and wait for an answer ?
The bees may survive but the brood is at very high risk of chilled brood. I've made 2 frame splits too soon, too many times to know what happens.
How late is too late in the year to do a split?
We do splits in early September with mated queens, and then feed non stop through November.
During my split I moved the hive with out the queen, is this a serious problem?
It may be a problem if the split you moved (the one without the queen) didnt have a lot of bees in it. The reason is, the foraging bees will return to their "old" location. You just have to be sure that the split has enough food until they have their own foragers. Hope this helps
How many miles per gallon do those bees get?...do they run on gas or diesel? Lol I see your gas nozzle there
I know you dislike tripods but have you considered one of those chest or head mounts? I don't know if you use a GoPro type camera or your phone, but it could free up your hands a bit whilst still maintaining food frames on what your filming.

Can you let them make their own queen
Are you selling queens right now?
Is there anything wrong with leaving the new split queenless and letting them build their own queen?
Yes you can, but use a frame that has more young eggs, vs all capped brood.
Thanks David!
@@davidhaught84 You would also need more nurse bees and resources. It will be a month before the new queen is laying so the hive is not going to grow for awhile. Small splits don't make big nice queens. Better to buy a queen or use a queen cell from another hive.
Where did the best tinder video go?
Go to his homestead hacks page
Are you raising your own queens? How are you getting mated queens already? Video coming?
why do some people recommend like 2 miles away?
