    Love your videos about your girls.My wife and I live in Little Rock, AR i a neighborhood so keeping bees are not something we can do for two reasons. Because our houses are so close together and I am allergic to the sting. I don't go into shock but I do swell and it is so painful. So we try to plant flowers to help them. Rather I dig the holes and my wife Becky does the planting. She is the one with a green thumb. We have two bird baths tor our birds that we feed and lo and behold who starts coming to the bird baths you guessed it the honey bees. We don't know where from but they just started coming to get water. If the water gets a little old they won't be there but five minutes after it is changed here they come. It is so much fun just to watch them sit and drink and they aren't aggressive. From Little Rock thanks for all of your videos and teaching me I don't have to be afraid of them because as a rule they aren't aggressive.

    Kaylee, I’m so sorry it looks like your Queen has BBB 👎. The thumbs down is because she doesn’t belong to me and BBB stands for “big beautiful brood”. If you will send her to me I will give her a nice new hive to live in for her remaining days and I will make sure she doesn’t get infested with mites and SHB and make sure she always has honey and bees to feed her and you would never have to pinch her. On top of that I’ll even pay the shipping charges. What do you say? Don’t you think that’s a great deal? lol she is beautiful and I would be proud to own her!

    My mite counts were zero in August, but I treated with Apiguard anyway (active ingredient thymol). I figured it couldn’t hurt, may help, just in case. I noticed egg production has slowed down and the brood pattern a bit spotty, but hope to continue seeing consistent signs of queen activity next time I go in.

    🌻🌻🐝🐝🌼🌼. THANK you for this awesome video and hearing the sounds of happy bees even the slight tone change could be heard. My zinnias were amazing as I had planted them in rows of colors with the crimson far taller than the others. Last two weeks of August it ended as fires took out so much and headed to the precious Apple Orchards and on to Cherry Valley. When we returned we’d lost part of the roof and two out buildings which was part of my studio. Days ago we were forced to evacuate again cuz the winds shifted the new fires in our precious mountain range and now another fire is racing from the west soon to join this one. Heard stories from the fire crews as we helped to feed them about the large black swarms louder than the helicopters dropping water. Last night at my dear friends home where we’ve landed the sunset was all aglow like something from the Mars movie. Suddenly it all went black as bees swarmed everywhere and the lamenting sound of confusion filled the air. A few flowers in friends yard that hasn’t fried cuz of horrendous heat had so many bees on them I’m certain they would fall over. Way past dark the sound kept going and my heart ached. What becomes of these diligent workers and no home or queen to save them? I’ve seen citrus groves burn with hives included cuz teens having a night of fun. But never have I’ve seen such horror as raging fires or maybe not noticed so many at one time that the sky turns black from the swarms. Fire crew had stories of places I’ll never go to and sounds that echoed in canyons as they tried to put fires out. HOORAY seeing a glimpse of your queen and all the chubby workers loving their life serving her and us as well. Thank you for a glimpse of such beauty when in other areas there’s so much doom. Your videos become cherished works of art for me to relax to when all this world is filled with so much chaos. Keep getting dirty and sharing the magic of bees and everything on your place called home. 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

His one hive is p$$y. We've requeened etc. For some reason that hive just stays warm/hot as far as attitude. lol What gloves do you use and suit? We are old re beginners. My husband was a bee keeper decades ago and now our son is getting back into it. This is his second year.

      Because of the area that I am in I am considering building a 16 frame hive as my bottom super and then in the center put my ten frame soup on top of that so my queen always stays down in the bottom for my nectar flow and her laying ability and some pollen and nectar for The Brood I will let you know how it works out

    • @lloydfreeman1203
      @lloydfreeman1203 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      By keeping the queen down below and such a large area for her too late and the workers to put pollen and nectar the queen would always have enough room to continue laying and not to swarm as rapidly Plus I cut my Queens wings before she is able to swarm with the workers and this keeps the hive from being lost
