    A real honey hive for sure, those folks will be eating honey for the next 3 years....and picking wax from their teeth as well. Awesome video and great pictures at the end. The black and white pictures were my favorite. God's peace brother.

      They reconnected with some long-lost relatives and estranged friends when everyone figured out how much honey they had. You know the old lottery winner syndrome.

    This is not really bee related but i have binged watched you for many months. Being 70 and house bound with MS your videos bring me so much joy. I cannot see the country like i used to do,i have never seen your part of the country from Colorado. I love all the extras for sure it brings a lot of joy to this old woman, thank you so much and the bee info helps me go to sleep at night i just love hearing them in their hives😊. Thank you so very much!!!

      I was literally confirmed as having M S yesterday, i knew it was coming so i went to Italy and saw Pompeii, Sorrento and went up the volcano. Gotta do these things now just in case, though it seems the treatment is a lot more effective these days. Hope you are pain free and able to get out again soon

    I really enjoy your videos. I have learned so much about bees and honey, I almost bought a nuc. Lol.
    On another note, the segments in your videos, the parts of Mississippi that you explore along the way, are simply a beautiful way to express what is great about America. Some places are rough and maybe the community is having a hard time, you still capture the essence of America, the promise that better times lie ahead. I love this country and I have a richer understanding of who we are.

    Haven't watched your channel in quite a while Dirtrooster, let me just say you are lookin GOOD!! Lost a ton of weight, keeping the beard better trimmed, you looking like a fine suth'rn gentl'mun! Keep it up! Great hive too, so soothing to see some of these, especially when they produce those wonderful bricks of honeycomb.

    Wait! Did you find the queen?
    How many lbs of bees (minus what you gave away). Did you create more than one hive at home? I didn’t hear it how many total bees would you estimate was in that hive?
    Thank you! This was an incredible video!

    • @628DirtRooster
      @628DirtRooster  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I didn't weigh them but I'd guess 50K or so. I did get the queen.

    Great video, such a gigantic beehive. You're doing a great job, your videos are always great. And your photos even more so. Thanks from East Germany, Brandenburg. If you have a few bees left over, send them to me, they can fly the few kilometers. ;)

      I'd love to send you some bees but I doubt they'd make it through customs. :)

    the hardest part for the bees is getting the bee contractor out there with a bee engineer to determine the structural integrity of the comb so they can get their occupancy permit. And who knows how long that will take.

      If they're dealing with our town, it'll take a while.

    Do you remember that time when old Dirtrooster brought home that Ero side ways hive. And do you remember the look on the Rooster's Dad's face. Yeah he looked at DirtRooster like he'd just drug home a dead skunk. LOL, best thing on youtube that entire year!!! Yeah, them were the good old days. LOL!
