I like to refer to the cold grey sky days of winter as 'grey stick season'. Here in NH, the less snow we have, the longer grey stick season is. I love to ski, any kind of skiing, so no snow = no fun. How about Alta, Utah, over 500" of snow, now that's fun! Thanks for posting Emily, love your energy, take care
Another great review👏🐝👏Loved how u kept calling them spinny thingies🤣and the Queen spinny thingy was especially cool talk about options!👍Those half frames r Adorable too! I'm with u on the price too imagine if All ur frames were Apimaye🤯💰😬Definitely seems like they're the way for queen breeding but yeah I'd stick with the woods for the vast majority! Well Thanks for yet another Great video my Favorite Keeper, u hang in there my friend and I will see U in the next one😊 #emilyisthebeesknees #beefitbeekeeping #beefitapiary #beefithoney #beefit #beekind #queenbeeemily #springiscoming🌻
Emily I’m impressed with your bee yards and all the equipment you use. My question is how we’re you able to acquire that much equipment in that short of time. Did you get a grant? Thanks for the videos
For me the good thing about apimaye hives is the Insulation which makes me want to get them very much but like you said its a little pricy and upgrading the hive will cost more
Emily, that’s the first time I’ve seen a Defender hive. It wouldn’t make a great mating box yo drop 4 cells in at a time. What have you been up to? You look and act so much happier!
Yes that is a long hive! The Queen breeder I teamed up with built it. It’s used as a conjoining hive. The main Queen I want to breed off of that summer goes in there and then when I want to make another Queen, pull out a frame (all the frames in there are half frames) and just stick it in the defender hive and they will make a new Queen. It’s a great hack for breeding queens ☺️
HELP PLEASE 🐝 Thanks for all your tips and tricks. This is my first summer keeping my wonderful Bee's. My question is.. how long after the summer solstice do you put the new queen in Hive? Here in New Zealand our summer solstice is on the 21st of December. It is the 16th of February today and I'm guessing it would be to late to do it now for me. Any help muchly appreciated.
@Chuck Jager what are your qualifications to judge this girl? I am a member of a bee Club. And if there is a way to control mites without putting chemicals in my Hive I would really like to try it. Please tell me why you commented on this post? Mr Laughing Man
Yes! It makes me so happy! 55 degrees today. Gonna drop down to the 30s again but for the most part judging by the way the bees are acting spring is almost here ☺️

good stuff! I've never heard of this hive. but please get a tripod. After this video, I felt dizzy from all the camera shaking going back and forth.
I like your in depth reviews.

Awesome video Great work !
Thank you very much! Thanks for watching ☺️❤️
No, I don't know how it it in the Midwest. I do know how it is in Alaska though. -50F takes a bit more insulation and food.
How did you advance so fast in 3 years. I didn’t know you had those hives. They are used and I’ve never seen those hives in your yard.
That’s not her yard look back at her earlier videos she doesn’t have any of those hives she has no experience with these hive at all .
@@denb7181 that didn’t keep her from giving a review.
Do you do anything with long hives? I thought I saw one in the background. I built one and I wonder if you have an thoughts about them?

That's lot work in plastic hives been sticking with langstroth for years
Does the Apimaye 10 frame super fit on top of these?
Thanks for sharing. Yeah those are nice but pricey. But they will last forever.
Yes they are! Thanks for watching Randall ♥️☺️

Your snow is gone.👍

So what's up with the blink of an eye thing at a certain time stamp? :)
Have you ever seen fight club? 😉
Yes but the main thing I remember is the first rule of fight club. Lol
Spinny thing!
I appreciate your video but you make me dizzy with your camera work. Up and down like a yoyo, side to side like a swing.
