    Is that the new version of the Mr. Roger's " Won't you bee my neighbor" song you used while you were removing the comb? I was totally expecting to have him show up and do your into for you after it was over. I sure wish I could get some of those easy removals like you get. Heck, you did not even have problems getting those water melon hands in the space to grab the comb. Great job buddy, and another great video. God's peace brother.

    I live in TN and I've thought about starting a small hive here at my home and getting into beekeeping but our winters get very cold and we don't always get snow but we do have snow and nights where the temps fall below freezing and sometimes into the single digits so I've always wondered if they could withstand the temperatures and survive... When I was a kid there were honeybees everywhere here in TN but now I rarely see any honeybees during the summer. I love your videos and you sense of humor/personality and I hope you continue to make them because they always improve my mood when a new video is posted and I can't wait to watch it! Plus love the beeducation lol 💘❣️

  • @MikeBarryBees
    @MikeBarryBees 4 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    I like the mite checks. As I said before, I'm really interested to see how it trends through the year on cutouts. Especially if you are able to ascertain if the removal is a newer colony near any beekeepers. More feral than others. Going to be interesting. Be cool to track it in Excel and list different variables on what is known of the age, location, size, nearby apiaries, etc. Research gurus track feral vs. apiaries, but cutouts? Doubt it very much.
