I just came upon your page and laughed your kinda crazy! But in a fun way! Had some Bumbles in my shed wanted to deter them that's how I found you!😂 Fyi takes a while for them to disperse...ugh
That sure was a huge swarm! Would you mind taking a look at a video I just posted? I have a steady stream of dead bees outside of my hive. In the grand scheme of things, it's not that many bees. I know bees die all the time, but these little buggers are dying of ~something. Even so, the inside of the hive looks fantastic. In short, there's a bunch of bees which are dying which look like they're shaking and not moving about. Any help or suggestions would bee much appreciated!
@@TheUrbanBeekeepers Well, it's filled with food, filled with capped brood, filled with open brood, filled with bee bread, & mite count is 2.3% So...don't think it's food. Varroa are usually responsible for bringing lots-o-pathogens, but I'd really like to narrow this one down.
No offense to everyone behind the lens or making things happen "hands on" and with talent.. But, EDITING is the truly tedious part. Some of my friends and I were at the forefront of remote control aerial platforms starting in 1998=ish... I spent 10x more time editing back (if you want to call my amature adobe burps) than I spent traveling to job sites, equipment and all the other incidentals... Just saying, there are definite times when you really shouldn't edit. I think there is FAR TOO much editing and playing around trying to making striking (to some!) videos. I find I gravitate to the good stuff, trimmed or not... Outside of that, what an insane looking hive.. Never seen one like that... Keep up the great work! My cousin has "hobby hives" far out (from home) on their property.. From boxer to beekeeping amatuer.. These videos are great for education, for sure.. I'll share it with him forsure, and others..
The best was to see such a big swarm and how they managed to save themselves by walking into the hive. The rest was disappointing, really this is not the way to do it. Take same experience with you to see how it's done. Lastly God's name is sacred,use it only when you talk to Him directly. Cobus🐳
Keep a Big Gulp plastic cup with you for scooping bees. So much easier. They slip right in and right out. Nice big swarm.
That’s a good idea
You've got plastic buckets right there in the truck

Nice to see you again. I've missed you and family. Hope the farm is going well. Welcome back.

Great to see you back darrel. Beautiful swarm
Thank you. Was a very large swarm for sure
That's a nice swarm. Good to see you.
Thank you.
Hey Fish, glad to see yer back with da bee vids ❤ 😊😊😊😊😊❤
Thank you
Good to see you back
Hey Darrell, nice to see you on video. Appreciate you making a bee video. Thanks much for sharing!
Thank you for taking the time to watch it
Nice to see you again!
I must say I am really impressed..... And in my heart of hearts kind of glad I didn't have to remove that puppy....
Keep queen clips handy. Catching the queen or queens is helpful. A swarm that size could have multiple queens.
I normally do but I did not have one in my truck
Long time since we heard from ya! Welcome back!
Thank you
Good to see ya back buddy. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching
Beekeepin in crocs love it 😂🍀
They don’t like cow hide.
Great job.!!
Seems like they don’t
Nice swarm catch buddy. Good to see another video from you.

@Dfishman76 doing great. Just caught my second swarm today. ❤️🐝
Nice swarm. I've not caught or seen a swarm yet this spring in my neck of the woods. Good video and info.
This is the 4th for the year. Had 2 of them leave the box I put them in. I should take time to cage the queen
@@dfishman76 I have sever swarm traps out, we had 20 degree weather a week ago, warming up good now. Maybe catch some soon. Thanks for your video.
We are going to have over55 MPH wind here in N.W. Ar. tomorrow The bees swarm then an you might bee catching some of mine.. Thanks great video.....
Wind has been crazy past few days
Too cool congrats

Can Help catching the falling bees by holding a frame sideways when scooping bees with your hands. Speeds up the process.
Missed seeing your videos
Going to try to do better
Nice to see! You again
Thank you
Thanks for the video
Thanks for watching
Looks like fun
you sprayed a dangerous chemical in a birdbath??
Nice swarm
That sure was a huge swarm!
Would you mind taking a look at a video I just posted?

It's probably varroa related or starvation, take a class to learn how to avoid both
@@TheUrbanBeekeepers Well, it's filled with food, filled with capped brood, filled with open brood, filled with bee bread, & mite count is 2.3%
So...don't think it's food.
Varroa are usually responsible for bringing lots-o-pathogens, but I'd really like to narrow this one down.
@@cluelessbeekeeping1322 let me
Know if you figure it out
That is a Prime swarm and hope they stay.
I would like to see where they come from
Long time no see, how you keeping. David UK.
Busy all the time. Thanks for watching
I didn't realize that just scooped up bee's will sting so much, thought they were calmer.
Don't use leather gloves or they will sting it up. Take a frame plastic fondation and scoop them up or brush them on it.
You know , if that's only half of a hive. I'd like to see what the original Hive looked like..... loedie, lordie, what a thought...
Sweet
I am up to 7 swarms so far.
Nice
Iam still subscribed. Cobus🐳
I would of used a frame out of the box to scoop the bees with. Not my hand. Less likely to be stung.
But more likely to crush bees and cause other issues
Fabulous, waiting for a bit of warmer weather here, finding a swarm this year is what I'm looking forward to. Lost my bee's this winter.
Hopefully you will catch enough to fill all your equipment
Sure hope so. Hope alls well your way.
Will it be man without smoke and without a 1/2 tour if not much of a bee man this is Uncle rob said that
Lol you don’t smoke swarms.. your uncle Rob does not know what he is talking about…
