It's not often I do follow up videos, but that's exactly what this video is about. I will be checking on two hives that just a month ago were in someone's house but now are relocated to the abbey. Both of these hives had queen issues and food storage issues which is why I will be checking on them, to see if there have been any improvements on those two fronts, as well as the general health of the hive since the removal.
So get that cup of coffee or whichever morning eye opener you enjoy and click the start button. I do thank you for taking the time to watch, and have a great weekend. Till next week, God's peace.

I love it when you include some "Bee roll" at the end.
I learned that one from watching the Dirt Rooster, and I think it does make the video a bit more interesting. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Hello, i am Fabio, great beeHello, my name is Fábio, where I buy this BEE FEEDER, could you give me the link, thank you, I'm a Christian and I love it when you say thank you Jesus when you take a queen ...

It make you feel good to know you saved them from certain death and to see them with a little help start thriving. Great job Mr. Ed!!!
It certainly does! Thanks for watching. God's peace Rodney.
Mr. Ed
One of the videos I should have made this year would have been the bees cutting the rubber bands and dragging them out of the hive. It's amazing how they do this. They first secure the comb to the frames and then remove the rubber bands.... absolutely amazing how they figure this out.
I have to agree, it's simply amazing, and pretty cool as well. Thanks for watching. God's peace David.
Mr. Ed
Brought some of the honey you gave me to the lake house this weekend. Was telling my brother that this video was where we did the video we did together
Next time you guys make it down to Louisiana, bring your brother as well and we'll get him on the back porch as well. There's always something going on back there. God's peace D.
Mr. Ed
The rubber bands!!!! That is incredible. What amazing little creatures, seriously
It really is pretty cool. Every time I see rubber bands outside a hive I laugh. It's just another amazing aspect of bees. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Glad you started video with mowing the around the bees. Fun to watch others doing it but less fun doing it myself. I always fret about the mowing and suit up like I’m going to war.
It's one of the lowest priority jobs I have, but it is a necessary evil. Like you, it does feel like you are going to war. Thanks for watching. God's peace Carl.
Mr. Ed
So fascinating that they take out the rubber band.. This is a very impressive video Mr. Ed......
It is pretty cool seeing those rubber bands on the ground. Often, you will see the rubber bands hanging on the outside of the entrance of the hive before they fall to the ground, and it always makes me laugh to see that. God's peace Mona.
Mr. Ed
I would like to hear the church bells. A video about them would be excellent!
I love the sound myself, and they have been in a few of my videos. May bee one day I'll devote a bit more time to them. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Maybe a recording walking up one day and use it for an intro or outro clip on occasion. Share the peace and set a mood so to speak. Just a thought.
@@markpashia7067 Great idea Mark, I am going to use it, stay tuned for it. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Letting you know that your content has further helped me overcome my fear of bees 🥰 Again, went from almost running off a cliff to evade a honeybee, to now being able to clip and tend my herbs with honeybees just inches away. Still flinch when I hear buzzing, and have to say aloud "Hello bees, don't mind me. Just doing my own thing, please just keep on with your beezy business." But, would have never even dreamed to do that in the past. Keep doing what you're doing, it makes a difference!
So happy to hear my videos provide a bit more than entertainment and diversion. Congratulations on conquering your fears, and expanding your horizons. Thanks so much for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Our ivy flow is on right now here in Baltimore...massive amounts of natural plant based pollen and nectar to raise those winter nurse bees and plenty of late winter bee bread being stored around the winter brood nest for massive buildups as they move out into early spring...gotta love those late season flows.
Awesome! Happy bees mean happy bee keepers. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Nice to see how your cut out bee's are developing.
The really nice thing to see is how well these bees have done during this transitional period. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Mr Ed, it’s good to see both colonies have adjusted well to life at the Abby. Hopefully they will produce honey next year and earn their keep. You definitely did the right thing by not opening those hives when the bees were taking pollen from the feeder. I would have been scared to set them up that close to the feeder but I know that you know a lot more about bees than I do! Thanks for the video and we both know God is in control.
It is so pleasing to me seeing how both of these hives have turned to corner and are on the road to recovery after being taken from houses. I think I will continue making videos on these 2 hives just to show that it is possible to relocate bees and have them flourish. Thanks for watching. God's peace Don.

Thank you Mr Ed
You are very welcome Melad, it's always a pleasure for me to share my bee wrangling adventures. Till the next time, God's peace my brother.
Mr. Ed
Great vid as usual, Mr. Ed. So glad tho bees you wrangled are thriving. With you as their keeper, I never had a doubt. God's Peace, Vicki
Thank you for your blessings and kind words, as well as taking the time to watch and leave your comment. Till the next time, God's peace Vicki.
Mr. Ed
There was a pair of love bugs on the pollen feeder. I haven't seen any since I lived in Shreveport/Bossier City. Really enjoyed this video, Jeff. Since you were wearing your bee suit, I was hoping to see you being chased while mowing. 🤭
Thankfully I was not chased, but I usually am. I was actually surprised that the bees did not come out in full force, it was why I was videoing as I went by. Still, glad they stayed inside. The love bug season is actually over, but there are a few of them still around. 2 weeks ago they were covering everything. God's peace Leann.
Mr. Ed
That last frame the bee who wanted her 15 nanoseconds of fame. Your joy over these successful hives is wonderful. God bless you Jeff.
Even bees want to bee noticed. Thank you for your blessings JJ. God's peace to you as well.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Bee Happy!!!
New subscriber here. I'm not into bee's, but I just love your videos. Thank you for sharing. :)
Thank you so much for taking the chance to watch my bee wrangling adventures and then subscribe even though you are not a "bee" person. I hope that after watching a few of my videos, I only have about 400 of them, even that position may change. I'm looking forward to hearing from you again very soon, and remember, I post a new video every Friday. Welcome aboard TT, it's wonderful having you watch. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
I'm so happy for you and the bees that these 2 hives are doing well mr. Ed. I find it extremely interesting to see the follow up of some cutout hives so if you have time I would appreciate some more of this videos. But only if you are able to sir because the bees have priority!
Some very nice footage of the bees using the pollen feeder. It always looks so cute when they come in the hive with those little clusters of pollen on their hind legs. Thanks to you and Randy and some other beekeepers I learned a lot about bees. I always had a love for nature but now I look even more fondly when I see the pollinaters buzzing about around in our garden.
I do plan on making more follow up videos. I find it very interesting to see the progress the bees make during their transition, and it's wonderful to know that many others feel the same way. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Here in western NY golden rod is in full bloom with other late flowers
So cool to hear! I just saw this morning the first buds on our Goldenrod. I hope it's going to be a good nectar flow, we shall see. Thanks for watching. God's peace Steve.
Mr. Ed
Always nice to followup and see how they are doing. You should do this more often sir! Thank you!!
I am going to try and make it a habit, I do find it an interesting topic. God's peace Julie.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff
Keep an eye on the weather sir, does not look like any quiet for a while yet.
@@julieenslow5915 Right now, it looks like the Rooster is going to take the hit, it's headed to Gulfport, MS. God's peace Julie.
Mr. Ed
I like that you're training your subscribers to spot queens from six feet away. I had to put this up on the big screen so I could almost see her.
How did you know you had "cat brood"? Was it the ammonia smell?
Oh, cat brood is easy to spot--the frame was littered with it!
@@Doxymeister lmao
That's a trick I learned in video making school, it's to get the viewer to move closer to the screen to look. A very effective technique. It's very easy to tell when you have "cat brood," there's whiskers poking through the wax. Other wise, it regular capped brood. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
@@Doxymeister That's just scratching the surface, too.
I have a smell phone. Hello, Moto! Lol
The fact that they take out the rubber bands on their own is so amazing! 🐝🐝
It makes me smile every time I see it. Thanks for watching. God's peace Gail.
Mr. Ed
Wow! Wonderful news! Thank you for sharing your Abbey Bees with us❤️🙏❤️🙏
You are very welcome, the pleasure is all mine. Thanks for watching. God's peace Cindy.
Mr. Ed
The architecture and building skills never ceases to amaze me
And me as well, amazing creatures. Thanks for watching. God's peace Andrew.
Mr. Ed
Thank you for the update!! I was wondering how that little hive was doing since when you cut it out it was so full of hive beetles. So happy to know it is doing well. Sure do enjoy your videos. They are always a highlight to the week. Thank you!!!
Glad to hear you enjoy watching my bee wrangling adventures, but I have to say, no one looks more forward to receiving your correspondences than my mom, she just lights up. Thank you for doing that kindness, you bring her great joy from your cards. God's peace Stephonie.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff I very much look forward to them. You show parts of the whole bee keeping process that others don't and your enthusiasm for everything from bees and life is one reason why I enjoy them so much.
Thank you for letting me know your mother enjoys my cards. It brings me great pleasure to know she enjoys them. I hope she doesn't grow tired of them. My life is so unexciting.
Mr. Ed, although I'm not a bee 🐝 keeper l really do enjoy watching the channel 👍 keep rangling those bee's and I'll keep watching. Prayers for many blessings to keep coming your way.
It's always a pleasure when I hear when a viewer watches even though they are not bee keepers, thank you for doing that. I'll be making more as long as there are good folks like yourself who will watch. God's peace bother.
Mr. Ed
I also love how excited you get when your removing a hive and you find the big butt Queen! Love watching you Mr. ED and will be contacting you soon via email about my honey order at the end of October!
Hopefully it will bee a great fall harvest, we shall see. God's peace Tammy.
Mr. Ed
So glad that the hives from recent cut-outs are doing so well. Nice to see that they have a good chance of survival through the upcoming winter season. Love to see Mr. Ed caring for some of God's creatures.
Take care, stay safe, God bless. 🐝 🐝 🐝
It made my day as well to see how well these bees are faring, especially given their circumstances and the time of the year. Thank you for your blessing and for watching. God's peace Rose Mary.
Mr. Ed
It’s so weird. I did 2 cut outs this year. The first one has been struggling and I had to re-queen them as she didn’t survive the initial move. The second one has gone all out! I walked up to the NUC a week after I put them in my yard and saw all these stringy things out the front. As a new bee keeper, I thought to myself “what kind of worms are in my hive? Is it going move to my others?” It turned out that they had cut all the rubber bands from the cut out and were pushing them out the door.
It's always interesting to see how the bees react to being relocated, sometimes good, sometimes bad. Regardless of the outcome, and I'm always grateful when it's a success, I know the bees were given the best opportunity to survive. If they had not been removed, they would have been killed. Way to go Preston, keep up the good work! God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
lmao that funny The weird thing is they chew on rubber bands like chewing gum
I had the same experience just today.
What is at the entrance of the hive ....
Old discarded rubberband.
Lol
Always a pleasure to watch your videos Jeff!
Thank you for sharing
Thank you very much for your kind words Christopher, and thank you for taking the time to follow along with my bee wrangling adventures. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Great video as always Mr. Ed. To a God be the Glory!
AMEN to that Raymond! Thanks for watching. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
I got too close once and they worked me over as I ran to the house, ended my beekeeping,lol. :) Free range bees.
Sometimes you'r the bug, sometimes you'r the wind shield. I know for me I have been eaten up sometimes and other times they are as nice as they could bee. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
"Free range bees" hahahaha
to say you make this look easy is the is the biggest understatement ever. ten bee stings later, i’m through with my one beehive for today ~ maybe forever. in the process, i’m not even sure what i did. he only thing i know for sure is that after about thirty minutes of looking through the two brood box and one super, some bees got in my suit so i took off running. i tore off my bee suit as fast as i could, but dozens of bees were chasing me. i ran out of the back yard, up the driveway, and across the street. they were still chasing me. what started it was, i was going to check the honey super. then i saw a huge ball of bees that extended from the hive opening to underneath the screen bottom board, and all over the two cinder blocks the hive was sitting on. my biggest mistake was getting into beekeeping in 2016. the $500-plus initial investment should have been enough to scare me away. i got 23 half-pint jars of honey in 2017 ~ that’s it, ever. since then i’ve spend hundreds of dollars on more hives, replacing dead bees, queens, and swarm commander. anyway, i think i mostly scooped up all the outside bees and put them in another box about 50 feet away. and, took some frames out of the other two boxes and put them in the new box. as you probably know, these stories go on and on. i don’t know what i did, and in the process, i forgot everything i learned from you. i’ve showered, taken two benadryl, and am staring out the window. i don’t feel good, and can’t even say why. this whole thing is crazy.
There is no doubt about it, keeping bees is not for the faint of heart. It is serious work, and there are so many heart aches you suffer trying to get a bit of honey. The funny thing is for so many of us, in spite of the trails we endure while practicing this trade, we would do it all over again. Stay strong, tomorrow's another day. God's peace Robert.
Mr. Ed
Heart warming to see that small colony surviving. Well done Jeff.
I feel the same way. It was a good turn around for both hives. Thanks for watching. God's peace Patrick.
Mr. Ed
Nice looking new cutout hives. You just never know. My hives don't mind my grass cutting. I do make sure the discharge is away from the hives opening.
The bees did not mind this time when I cut the grass, but at other times they came out with a vengeance. Thanks for watching. God's peace Wayne.
Mr. Ed
Fantastic as always Mr Ed. With love from Sukes in the UK. Xx
Thanks for your love and for watching. It's a real joy for me to share my experiences, glad to have you following along. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Good to see the beetle infested colony is getting there. We definitely need more follow-up videos..
I was very pleased myself to see their recovery and progress. Thanks for watching. God's peace Roy.
Mr. Ed
Fascinating! Thanks Mr. Ed.
You are very welcome Kate, thanks so much for watching. God's peace.

If you had that many good frames bowling you'd be on the pro circuit. Keep on rolling jeff!
Looked like a 300 for sure! I'll keep rolling them out as long as there's folks like yourself watching. God's peace Joey.

So nice to see you providing pollen supplement. Fascinating how they cut the rubber bands and remove them from the box. Clever little things. Tku for sharing.
Thanks for the overview.

Mr. Ed
A great 👍 save of two hives under great stress, love 💕 those bees 🐝. God bless you Geoff and your team.
It's just so cool seeing how these hives have turned the corner and are on the road to recovery. Thank you for your blessings and for watching. Till the next one, God's peace Narelle.
Mr. Ed
Love that you gave us a follow up on some of the removals you had. I often wonder how they are doing after you take them back to the Abby ... great videos keep up the good work
Because it is so late in the year to do removals, and both of these hives had major issues when I removed them, I was particularly interested in their development, And it is great to know I am not the only one who was curious. Thanks for watching. Until the next time, God's peace Shari.
Mr. Ed
Great video Jeff I was Blessed to be able to catch a couple of swarms last summer they seem to be doing well so far.
I'm glad you made an update on those feral hives. I enjoy learning how genetics plays into the viability of a wild bee population.
I was curious on their development, and delighted to find out how well they are progressing. Glad to hear you were interested as well. Thanks for watching. God's peace Mark.
Mr. Ed
Hi Jeff, great looking hives mate the bees are getting stronger with that honey your feeding them with. Thank you for saving these colonies and best of luck to them. Thank you Jeff for sharing your vlog and god bless my friend.
What a great joy seeing both of these hives turn around since being taken. It was a delight to share the sight, and I can't thank you enough for watching and for your blessing. God's peace Peter.
Mr. Ed
Fantastic well done I understand the feeling you have when you see bees thriving. Blessings to you and your family today 👍🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️
Regardless of the situation, whenever matters are headed in a positive direction, there is cause for joy. Thank you for your blessings and for watching. God's peace Rick.
Mr. Ed
I have never done a cutout and it is interesting to see the bees fill in the frames. I really look forward to your videos. Learn something every time and I can tell you really care for the bees. Thanks for what you do and God bless.
You need to get yourself down here so I can take you wrangling. I thought all them guys in Oklahoma were wranglers. Thank you for your blessing and for your kind words Garry. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Jeff Horchoff Bees there is way too many wranglers in Oklahoma to try and beat out. I just catch the easy ones but need to make a vac and get after it. I will definitely make it your way sometime. Thanks.
Hello Mr. Ed. How pleased I am to see those bees doing well, especially the ones in the second hive. Thank you very much for sharing with us. God bless and see you soon.
You and me both Elaine, it is so good seeing how strong both hives are becoming. Thank you for your blessing and for watching. Until the next one, God's peace.

Great to have you following along, thank you for doing that. Till the next time, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Always a joy to watch your videos Jeff!..I can never get my bees to hit the ultra bee. Maybe they dint need it but it's there! Take care!
The feeder will remain bee free for months, then all of a sudden, they are all over it. It's why I keep it on the porch year round. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
Loving your content, we had a little swarm on a branch on my little farm this summer, called a local beekeeper, who was so so happy to get some new bees. I have to admit i was a little sad to see them go, as i love the little buzzers, but i feel like we don’t have enough knowledge about bees yet to get our own hives, so im eager to learn!!
I highly recommend you jump right in, learning as you go is a great way of becoming a bee keeper. Heck, that's how I did it. Thanks for watching, and looking forward to hearing from you again. God's peace Amelie.

I'm sorry... I was just playing Half Life a little while ago and that was the first thing I thought of when you took the lid off and those beautiful girls started coming out of the top.
But seriously, I love watching you, JP and 628 - the friendly rivalry you have is a delight to follow and I appreciate how all of you have such different styles, personalities and approaches to your craft but also are all still very informative, educational and patient with people who approach you with questions about beekeeping. I always feel like I've learned something new whenever I watch videos from you guys.
Great comment , especially concerning "Half Life." I can't thank you enough for your kind words and for watching, they are both greatly appreciated. God's peace.

Mr. Ed
I need to hang around good people like you
I like hearing that, I have lots of videos you can watch. Hope to hear from you soon, God's peace Willa.
Mr. Ed
I didn't realize they would go through a stress period from being removed from the old to the new hive and the numbers would go down. Glad to know these will both make it though. Have a great day
Old bees die every day and young bees have not yet emerged to add to the population yet This means the total population will decrease at first. In fact, the older bees will be working that much harder since they recognize the hive is in dire straits. They will end up knocking several days or more off their normal lifetime.
You truly are "the bee whisperer," Mr Ed! Even when you're driving a mower right next to the hives it didn't appear as if they were very upset. I believe the bees know that they are in very good hands with you.
But still wise enough to wear his bee suit 😉
I'm no one special Lorraine, the bees just were happy that day and did not attack. On other occasions I have been mauled. Still, I appreciate your kind words and how faithful you are to watching my adventures. Until the next one, God's peace.
Mr. Ed

Hope you guys are staying safe with this next bunch of hurricanes.
Thank you so much for your concern Sandra, that is so kind of you. Fortunately for us, we once again were spared from the destructive forces of Mother Nature. Until the next time, God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Nice progress on the two cutouts. You had a candid camera going there for a moment. Lol. I wish that they made a smaller version of that particular feeder for those of us with only a few hives. For now I have made a couple of feeders made out of PVC pipe that work well. I have wondered thought, if the column of feed avalanches onto them as they burrow into it at the bottom. Take care Jeff.
I used PVC feeders for years, they worked great, but I was constantly refilling them. When I found this one where I could put 10 pounds of pollen substitute at a time in it, I was sold. For some reason, it never has avalanched on the bees....at least to my knowledge. Thanks for watching. God's peace Joe.
Mr. Ed
Thanks for the update! It's nice to hear they are doing well under your care. I haven't seen any of the northeastern beekeepers I watch use those pollen feeders; they seem to just lay the pollen out in wide, shallow box. I'll have to ask them about the difference.
I hope Lexie approved of this video, it was long enough for her I know. Thanks for getting everybody to watch. God's peace Kelly.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff Lexi and I actually watched it twice on Friday - well, Lexi did. 😂 I fell asleep (no shade on you, I've mentioned before I find your videos relaxing and I was on a LOT of Benadryl Thurs/Fri)), and woke up to her booping me on the nose with a paw. So I retstarted the video, she settled back down, and I watched it in full with her. The minute it was over, she got up and left-important kitty business elsewhere, I guess! 😂
You know, some abbeys have sheep for that. ;-) But it looks like you enjoyed cutting the grass. God’s blessings on you my friend, and thanks for another great video.
We have a sheep, and it's name is Kabota. Thank you for your blessing and for watching. God's peace Howard.

Mr. Ed
Hi, now we can see how awsome it was that you had wrangled the bees. You can be proud of yourself, that's for sure. I am happy that I found your channel. I know that I repeat myself, but it is what it is and how it is. Have a great weekend, too. Now it's already Saturday in the evening. Tomorrow we have mayor election and district council election and also local elections here in North Rhine Westfalia. Oha. First time, that I offered my help. I am a little bit nervous ;-) Stay healthy. Yours Beate Maria
So glad you discovered my channel as well, it's always an honor when someone chooses to watch my bee wrangling adventures. Thank you so much for doing that and taking the time to leave your comment. I hope your elections are a success for everyone in your area. God's peace Beate.
Mr. Ed
Dear man, it's up to me to say thank you. All the energy you need on top of your bee wrangling to answer with heart to my own thoughts are impressing me. Your kindness and attention for me let me dream of a better time. You know it. I am sorry that I am not signed by Instagram. I only have my mail-account at @t-online.de. When you prefer take my firstname put a dot after it to complete it with my familyname before the @ then you can reach my directly. All the time I thought about how to let you know without beeing so clumsy to write it here in this public area but now I am content about the chosen possibility ;-) Hope and think on my own, that not everybody is interested to read the whole comment and hope for you it is ok without feeling uncomfortable. By the way, when do you have Birthday? I am sure you're a lion ;-) - Take care.
I never realized how those lawn mowers look fun like a go kart!
This particular model lawn mower will out run a go kart even while it's cutting the grass. Of course, when I'm cutting around the bee hives, I really appreciate the speed this one has. Most of the time when I cut around the hives, the bees will come out in droves, they can not stand the vibrations the lawn mower's engine makes or when the grass cuttings shoot out towards the hive, but this time the bees did not mind my presence at at. Check out the link below and you will see a different sight.Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my bee wrangling/ bee rescues adventures and let me know what you think of them. By the way, I post a new video every Friday morning, and I look forward to hearing from you again soon. God's peace Kayla. Mr. Ed

Jeff Horchoff Bees absolutely love watching your videos! Question, do you ever eat the bees wax? I was feel like it would taste pretty good out of the hive, but probably doesn’t taste good at all 😂
Hi 👋🏽 Mr. ED I am here Checking you out., Wish I wasn’t Afraid of bee 🐝 but I am., my Sister was highly Allergic and Carried a EPI PEN 🖊 but she’s no longer with us.

Mr. Ed
Smashing video Jeff, I wonder how the bees know how to start work on a new frame, or how they work together to drag out a rubber band? That rubber band to them must be like a 10 foot wide 1 mile long rubber conveyor belt would be to us, I mean can you imagine trying to drag one of those on your own? They must have some way of distributing labour and working together to split the tasks, like we can talk to each other, like "hey Jeff come over here and give a us hand with this 10 foot wide 1 mile long rubber conveyor belt thing, I can't drag it on my own" do you think they do it by eye movements and nodding their head or waving their antennae lol?
Another confirmation on just how amazing these little creatures are. Thanks for watching. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
2 luvbugs bombed your video doing their thang! 😂
I was glad I was not censored for it. Thanks for watching. God's peace Tony.
Mr. Ed
Talk about "brood pattern" sometime, please!
That I will, great suggestion. Thanks for watching. God's peace Judi.
Mr. Ed
Hello Mr. Ed, Good to see that your bees are doing well. I was wondering how the bees dealt with those rubber bands. They are very organized and tidy little critters, very fascinating so they are. Be Good, Be Safe and God Bless you all.
I too was happy to see how well both these colonies are doing after being removed and relocated, it is a very stressful ordeal for the bees. Thank you for your blessings, concern, and for watching. Until the next time, God's peace Anthony.
Mr. Ed
WOW 😮 those bees are gone crazy over that pollen feeder! Where can I find them pollen substrate feeder and pollen substrate?
When pollen is needed in a hive and there is not much in nature to provide it, the pollen feeders work very well. I got both the feeder and the pollen substitute from Mann Lake Bee Supplies, but there may be other sources for it as well. I would shop around. Thanks for watching. God's peace Kevin.
Mr. Ed
Good luck with Sally. Hopefully she won’t cause any damage just rain
Thank you, everyone is on high alert right now. It's a waiting game at this point to see what happens. Thank you for your concern and for watching. God's peace CS.
Mr. Ed
Jeff Do you have a video on what a good brood pattern looks like?
Sorry, I do not. I don't speak much about that subject other than point it out when I run across it. The way to identify it is to look for a solid mass of brood, no missed spots in the pattern. The bigger the pattern with no misses, the better it is. Thanks for watching. God's peace Steven.
Mr. Ed
Hi Mr. Ed,
Looking at the first bee hive you went through and listening to you talk about it has me thinking they are probably descendants from the dirt roosters bee genetics. He may be wanting his royalty rights from them. 😂🤣😂
God bless you.
His attorney has already been in touch, we are in litigation now. Stay tuned for the verdict. Thank you for your blessing and for watching. God's peace Johnny.
Mr. Ed
Hello Mr Ed, muito bom dia gostei muito desse alimentador das abelhas,e esses enchames são muito dócio .Parabéns que Deus continue sempre abençoando seu trabalho. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
O alimentador de pólen é um equipamento muito legal e faz um ótimo trabalho alimentando as abelhas. Obrigado por suas bênçãos e por assistir. Até a próxima vez, irmão da paz de Deus.
Sr. Ed
I'm happy to see a follow-up on hives that come from those cut-outs. So fascinating how the bees cut those rubber-bands and drag them out of the hive! I do have a question on that hive that didn't have any brood when you did the cut-out. If you hadn't seen any brood on this inspection, how do you handle that? Anyway, happy to see they are doing well! Thank you for the update!
Had I not seen any brood, I would have left the bees alone. One way or another, it will work itself out. Either the hive dies or thrives, I do my part, the rest is in God's hands. I'm just very happy things turned out this way. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
#100😁 I've been lucky enough to bee able to mow around the hives without a vail so far but I'm sure that time will come.
Trust me, your time will come, but for now, enjoy it. God's peace.
Mr. Ed
Just kill the grass and plant clover around the hives. You'll never have to mow near the bees, and they will love the clover.
With our humidity and warm weather here in Louisiana, grass and weeds take over everything in a blink of an eye. Thanks for your suggestion and for watching. God's peace Dean.
Mr. Ed
Mr Ed. You need a bobcat and some awesome attatchments like a brushcat
Now that would bee sweet! Do you have one lying around? God's peace Willa.
Mr. Ed
@@JeffHorchoff I do have a brushcat and I borrow my brothers bobcat. They chop well
Brother I wish I had your faith. I lack in that department when I meet God I'm more likely to get the stick than the hug
Don't sell yourself or God short, His love makes up for all our shortcomings. I'll bee praying for you Robert. God's peace brother.
Mr. Ed
