Meanwhile the queen: weeeeeeeeeeeeee
Less hope that every thing goes well with the new queen❣🙏....Thanks y'all 👍

Love that you guys kept persevering through all the issues that arose. I probably would’ve given up 😅
As a commercial beekeeper, trust me, I've thought of quitting so many times.
@@SRS1918In north America, honey bees are highly invasive and devastating to our environment. They're native to Eurasia and were imported a long time ago. As a commercial bee keeper you're profiting off of something that is actively destroying your environment around you. They block out food access for native pollinators and spread diseases to them. It's time to start spreading awareness of the realities of beekeeping. It's an industry started and sustained for money. What's more American that profit, especially at the expense of the ecosystem
Thanks for making bee videos again we love them
Sure thing! I love the bees, too
I wish they farmed bees that were actually native to their home lands, honey bees were imported from eurasia. Honey bees are incredibly devastating to our environment, they create competition and take food from our native pollinators as well as being shockingly good at spreading diseases for our native pollinators too.
Most of the times, when I am watching TH-cam videos, I found myself double clicking to skip to the good part, waiting for the person to get to the point, but when I watch you guys videos, I can sit relax and watch the full thing. It’s so interesting & relaxing.
watching You guys grow over the years is so satisfying and sweet.
Such a blessing in a crazy far off world .
God bless you ❤
Thank you, I appreciate it!
@SydneyPatterson I do the same thing. I'm glad to know there are others that do the same thing.
You got to be smart as heck to manage bee farms like you are doing now. Big props. Love to buy some honey from Y'all.
Thanks!
@@whitehouseonthehill I hope you do a video about those hives where the honey is flowing out thru the front. You know flo hives @ 1:05.
Man that sun flower is really tall!!!!!!!!!! ❤👍🏼 from future homesteader
I love watching your videos❤, much love from 🇮🇳
Did he just say hes working now with mentors and reaching out to communities? How refreshing.
I did. I help out a community bee yard to learn from some other beekeepers.
@@whitehouseonthehill I know. That's why it's refreshing to see you not doing things blindly and experimenting with living creatures. You're finally leveling up. That's good news. 👍
So glad you found a local bee community to learn from! Very cool!
I love the bees and so happy the queens made it!Thank you for keeping us entertaining us each week
Thanks, Lauren 😊
Too bad they saved a species of bees that's actually devastating to the environment. Honey bees are not native to north America period, they're from Eurasia, and are actually horrifically bad for our ecosystems out here because they're killing off our native pollinators
I am looking into starting my own hive. We will have to put it on my inlaws property, bc my husband is allergic to bee stings. I will be the one taking care of it and im excited to get started. Luckily we have some friends that are going to help me out, but i have learned a lot from your videos as well. We love honey, and i think it would be great to raise our own. What do you suggest for getting the bees as far ordering them....
Find someone that sells nucs locally. Join a bee group on Facebook for your state or county and you’ll find some local people to get bees from and possibly learn from.
Kiwis generally grow as separate male and female plants (vs parts of the flowers or separately gendered flowers), it's gonna need a mate plant. There is one self fertile variety.
Ok, thanks for the info!
I haven't seen a kiwi vine like that before. I have 4 fuzzy kiwi plants that I grew from seeds in containers. This is their 2nd spring, and I have them growing up a 6 foot trellis that is too small for them. I haven't gotten flowers or fruit yet. Hardy kiwis are a different species of edible kiwi that I'm not as familiar with, so I wouldn't be able to identify it if that's what you have. I think you may have ended up with a different volunteer plant though.
I agree with the comment above. That's why I have 4 vines, hoping I would get male and female plants, but I haven't gotten flowers yet to confirm. There's a kiwi plant near me with flowers with both male and female parts. The fruit was actually delicious when I left them to ripen for a month or so after I picked them. It had a pretty spiky skin though and wasn't a normal grocery store variety.
Plus that's not a kiwi plant
One of these years I'll be quick enough to snatch up some of the honey oooooorrrr now hear me out Jake and Becky you'll greatly increase your hive amount by like 15 and there will be way more honey available 🤣
I think I’ll have more this year 👏🏻
At last! One of your most popular videos was you getting NAILED! By those aggressive bees that literally bombed you, your son, and your video equipment. Although I was already a mega fan of your family and your stories, it’s been a while since you’ve spoken about your bees! Good stuff man
Thanks, Francisco!
Loving this bee keeping videos. And thank you for listening to us and providing content and an update on the bee situation ! Next year is going to be rich in honey for you guys !
I hope the emus have a baby it'd be so cool to watch one grow again
Bert can finally stop being broody 🤣 He's a champ for sitting on those eggs for that long, I wonder if he'll be sad if none hatch. It's so interesting how it's the males that sit.
Still a few more weeks on the rest of the eggs he’s on
He I am going to start a farm. My son is the one that is starting the farm. He started to farming at 4 years old
👏🏻
It pays to gain knowledge prior to settling off into the unknown!
Always impressed with the quality you put into these mini movies of your lives. Certainly also worth the extra trouble you all went to get a more calmer lot of Bees. :) Maybe not as hectic but sure safer lol
May all your queens be successful.
So cool! I got my first hive last week. Can’t find the queen but there are eggs and larvae!
Awesome 👏🏻
I'm so pleased that you haven't given up ,and that you Guys persever no matter what👊🤗.
I actually started taking Bee Propalis for my health issues today!
I love to see Uriah right up close. Kudos Kiddo🌞.
Ya'll have learned so much 😊.
Happy Mother's Day Becky💐❤.
JO JO IN VT 💞
Thanks, Jo Jo!
It's crazy, I find beekeeping extremely fascinating but no way would I do it!!!
Gummy worm. LOL I might have used a candy corn if one was available.
Nobody likes candy corn here 😂
If you take some icing sugar and corn syrup you can make a nice putty which we would always use on the bee farm I worked at. You just press it in and the bees will eat right through to the queen!
I live in Carlisle Cumbria England and love watching your videos and family
Hi how are you all I live in Australia and I have just got my self some Malay chickens 4girls and 3 boys
I have been telling people here in Northern Michigan about your GIANT chickens. They don't believe me. Maybe because I couldn't remember there name. I would really appreciate it if you could reply with the breed. I did tell them how rare they are and the problems with hatching them. I really enjoy watching you family and farm grow. Blessings on you all!
Indio Gigante - our rooster is close to 3.5’ tall
I was so overjoyed when u got ur first hive and now seeing u have so much success this year. I am so proud of you guys. I think I teared up watching this. Well done ❤
I really appreciate it, thank you 😊
Hi guy i have been watching you guys for about 2.5 years now, I love your video it gives me ideas to improve my own chicken. Keep up the amazing work!
Wow! I'm a bee keeper in Australia, My company supplies for some of the biggest honey companys. Seems our setups are similar but different. It's amazing seeing how similar our bee worlds are. Keep up the amazing bee work! I love your channel!
Thanks 😊
Great video! Glad you found a group of people to help you figure out the best ways to manage the hives. Amazing to see how your kids are picking up on how to run things too!
Absolutely! The boys really enjoy learning and helping me
I attended a bee school from a local master bee keeper! It is good you found a community to get help!
I don't know whether to laugh or not 😂😂😂😂😂
At the beginning? You can laugh
Love the videos, the editing and design is amazing, keep up the good work. ❤
Thank you very much!
Love the bee videos....good job 🐝🐝...here in Belgium we have big problems with the Asian Hornet..😐
Thanks!
Whoa you taught me something about bees I didn't know thanks for the information very informative , hope your bee be very productive for you guy's.🌻😘🌻👍
Thanks!
I did not know there could be multiple queens per hive!
Originally yes, but they will kill the others once they take over a hive unless a split is occurring and the new queen is leaving with some bees
Thanks again for a super interesting video. QUESTION: Can you have more than 1 queen per hive? Thanks in advance
No, you can’t. The queen and/or other bees will kill any additional queens.
Absolutely love these bee videos! Please give us updates as the season goes on!
Hey man, just wanted to say thanks, Just started working with my local beekeeper and went searching for beekeeping videos to learn, these have helped me gain the courage to work with these beautiful creatures. Your life is AMAZING and inspiring! keep up the great work!
That’s great to hear!
I hope you're not from north America ❤ honey bees are highly invasive (from Eurasia) and actually hurt our environment way more than they could ever help. They're devastating to our native pollinators because they block out access to food, habitat and are surprisingly good at spreading diseases to them as well. Commercial bee keeping keeps these fact hidden because honey is a major profit, you can profit on practically everything a honey bee makes; from the honey to their stingers and everything in between. What's more American than profiting at the expense of our environment ?
I've just started bee keeping, though my parents have been doing it all my life. I still have a lot to learn, I didn't know about queens and their mating flight. Congratulations on the new queens though.
Awesome 👏🏻
Love your video ❤❤❤
Great Vlog on the Bees They are so Important to all of US most don't even think that with out the bees we Might starve any News Re White Peacocks ??
Coming soon
Sir what's happened with the White peacock 🦚
This was very interesting thank you for sharing this with us. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓
Thank you!
Great now I want some Honey-comb.😅
❤️
what happened with aviary project it’s been over 6 months since your last video i been watching since Covid time and still not been finished can you make video update about the aviary
Working on it this week
Finally bee vids! I've been waiting for this since the last one. Thought they might've all died during the winter so glad they're thriving.
😊
cool vid
That was a very cool video guys spotting queens and marketing them love it😊😊
👏🏻
Waiting list to buy some honey? Will be lovely
You need to plant some bulbs to come up every year or just a large flower patch or an orchard ❤ bees houses theive where there isn't to much competition. They might make their own queen. Give them a few weeks and check out their come
Location is important for resilient bees. Make the location perfect. Kinda a bee nut myself 😅
You should try to get a swan
Haha
Haha
Fres like from Yemen 🇾🇪👍👍👍😊🇾🇪
It's really nice on how you teach beekeeping in your videos! Keep up the great content!
Thanks 😊
Can we trade lives? Cause I want to do this.
Best of luck with the bees I find it so interesting I’m learning so much
👏🏻
Hi guys! I love your videos keep up the epic work
Thank you so much!
Love your videos! I have some Muscovy ducklings that”ll be ready to ship by June 14! You should get the three ladies some friends!
Thank you for 2023
That’s not a kiwi plant. Kiwis are giant vines with large leaves and are sex-specific except for one type , as noted previously.
Some kiwi are self fertile but yes, that's not a kiwi vine they're growing, it's a weed.
Yep, we figured it out when we looked up a plant. Just a weed that looks like little kiwis on it.
Can't wait to see the emu eggs hatch 🐣🐣🐣
When is the aviary going to be done man?
Btw love the videos
Late summer, early fall
If I’m honest (too honest I’ve been told) I wasn’t looking forward to watching this video, however at the beginning you said you have mentors and have been working with others looking after bees. I really enjoyed it. Great work learning more about the bees and how to care for them properly. Surely the Lego box should be retired especially if the bees keep dying over winter it’s not suitable for your climate. Great video guys.
you guy are amazing
Hey guys love the videos❤ how long does it take goose to external pip after internal pip?? Great videos❤
I’ve never hatched geese before, but most birds pip and then hatch within 1-3 days of starting
@@whitehouseonthehill thank you for replying. My goose pipper is hatched now
just a heads up. Kiwi have male and females. they wont produce fruit without having both. so i say keep trying! how amazing
I heard that from another comment, thanks 👍🏻
Not all kiwi need male plants, some variety are self fertile. The bigger issue is that is not a kiwi plant at all.
It's not a kiwi at all, kiwis are massive vines and what they have is a little weed.
Hi I was wondering if you guys would take supper cool and rare chick eggs I don’t believe you guys have this breed of chick there are cool looking and great for eggs the rooster will most definitely will protect your flock
Please respond if interested
Every time I see Jake In a bee suit I get ptsd for him 😂
Sorry 🤷🏻♂️
Incredible! Great video!
Thanks, Jonathan!
Nice Bro ❤ 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦
Mocco flag
How you spell mocco
Your country flag
Wow this was so interesting! Bees are truly amazing, thank you for sharing this with us!
Go Bert👏
Love you beekeeping videps so much
I appreciate it!
great video.
Time does "fly" when you're having fun! I remember all of those trials and tribulations, bring on the honey, honey!
Yep! Only a few months away 🍯
woow
how dare that queen flee how dare she!
😂
I’d love to hear about how you balance out your work schedule, how you manage time!
Love to see this and hobby bee keeping taking a hold every where! Way to go Whitehouse! ❤
👏🏻
It would be even better if they were keeping native species!!!
@@whitehouseonthehillit's time to change your ways and start thinking about the future for your children. If you keep spreading lies about honey bees, commercial bee keeping will kill off our environment themselves, how sustainable is the living then
Love the Factor meals!! They are soooo convenient and really delicious!! Thanks for sharing your code !!!
Awesome, thanks for letting me know, Gail!
I’m pretty sure that the reason your honey tastes so delicious is because of all the love you put into it. ❤️
That’s very kind of you, Nancy 😊
Love this vid ❤❤❤
Iv got something for u guys to try out this year dry hatching chicken eggs it no water needed till day 18
Your bee videos are just as addicting to me as beekeeping is to you. I watch all of your videos but there’s something about the bees that are just so interesting and different! I think I have binge watched all of them 😂❤
Thank you, Meg! I really appreciate that!
The lesson is never stop learning ❤ 🐝
True!
Do you recommend someone who wants to start beekeeping to get involved with a local Bee group/club first?
Yes, absolutely. They will help you learn and get started with some nucs. Then you can ask them questions and learn from how they do things
Such a good video. Which hive is your favorite?
I think the Layens hives (horizontal hives) have done the best for us and I can go through them more simply than the other hives.
Thanks. We have three hives one is horizontal. It was the only one to make it this winter. First year really doing it.
When you are marking the big cage for peacock and ducks😊
Why not plant a flower garden near by just for the bees..Wouldnt that be cool
🇿🇦♥️♥️💙💙💙💝🐝

Haven't watched yet, but the queens do fly away for a few days in the spring to breed.
Correct, the point of our video 👍🏻
This was the most educational video I have watched on bee keeping! Thank you!!
I appreciate it, Pam!
First comment from Pakistan !!
im so excited for u. I love these bee videos.
Um i learned a trick get some unscented swiffer dry pads and the mites get stuck on the pads but the bees dont
We’re gonna use Oxalic Acid this year to remove them naturally.
Y'all sould get more pics for Barbie and oreo
I usually fast forward through the sponsor portion of videos but I always watch yours. Your kids are so cute!
Thanks 😊
Watching your bee videos have helped me to starting my own hive, love y’all’s videos
That’s great to hear!
