      Whew..... I was really getting worried about you. I am happy you're back and can't wait for your new videos.

    I love that you’re all in with your hand talking and gyrations. Your excitement and love for your flying ladies is contagious.

      I have tried keeping them at my side before but they seem to fight back and wrestle themselves into the foreground :-)

    I think this video was awsome’ you can always talk about how you treat your hives, and your philosophy on feeding, and so on and on . Just an idea . But I think you should do more like this video. You’re the best.

    Wish it would rain here, 93° and dry beef just don’t wanna seem to build up this year so it’s good to see your videos Real beekeeping

    Thanks for the video. If you are seeking an idea for a staying in the loop session, you can share good memories of your childhood or maybe talk about the things that led to you becoming Mr. Big Farmer. Like… what chain of events occurred that sparked your interest in bees, and what happened to encourage you to make the first step to becoming Mr. Bug Farmer.

    • @BugFarmerBees
      @BugFarmerBees  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      All great ideas. Unfortunately my childhood was depressing and sad. As for the bees, well, I blame Jim and Vino Farm and Frederick Dunn. It's their fault.

    It's pouring with Rain (Again !) here in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Our Summer never came, arrived or started ! Darn. 😵‍💫
    The Hives are fine but any Spring Honey has gone on 'feeding the Girls.' So Bees are plenty, but near empty Supers.
    Oh Dear. Summer / Autumn might improve now its August.

      A rainy spring is a sure fire way to slow the flow. i hope you get some dry days and the girls can fill the boxes.

      I got a break in the clouds and inspected yesterday. I have to say it was a ...... clumsy attempt at beekeeping. I haven't been in the hives in so long I lost my touch :-)

    You made a better decision on your video than the one I just uploaded😂, I got into mine to feed. Absolutely the worst time to do it but it needed to be done.

      I will calm them in a second when working the frames. Just make sure not to add any scent, oills, or flavoring to the thin syrup. You don't want to kick off a robbing situation.

    Dang beavers! I bought a peach tree this year and it had one peach on it. I was waiting for it to be just right before picking but the night before I was going to pick it a critter got it. Talk about bummed. Send some of that rain my way friend
