Very good. Thank you.

Hello, i came back here looking for you because I remembered your channel and I really enjoyed the content. I realized that i had not seen a video from you in a long time. thanks for all the great videos and i hope you will make more when your life allows it.

Hi - I live in Los Angeles and found your video trying to figure out what to do. I got a nuc of bees on May 26th and was told by the guy I got them from that he was 99% sure there was a mated queen. On June 1st I inspected and saw no new eggs or active brood but what looked like queen cells or cups on one frame (didn't move the bees to know for sure). But, I assumed I either had no queen to start or something had happened to her so I left them alone. On June 8 I checked again and saw no evidence of any queen cups at all (unless possible that bees repurpose cups after one hatches?) but still no active brood at all. So, I am thinking that this hive is "hopelessly queenless?" and the workers could start laying themselves soon. I was offered another nuc of this guys nuc with an queen to combine and was at the bee store yesterday and the beekeeper there told me was very risky and that once a hive has been queenless for a few weeks (and especially if the workers start laying) that they won't accept the queen in the nuc and the workers from both hives will also fight and kill each other. She also told me that giving the queenless nuc a frame of new eggs and larvae won't be the answer because I will weaken the queen right nuc and that the queenless nuc won't have nurse bees, could reject, etc. AND she claims even if they did make a new queen, there are no drones around for her to mate with. Then I see your video and everything she says seems to be wrong and I am so confused. If you can offer me any insight I would appreciate in case things are different in southern california? and, yes, I am a fairly new beekeeper as I have only had one other feral swarm that I managed for about 1-1-/2 years.

This was super helpful. Thank you!

Great lesson. Rarely talked about

Do you top vent or offset supers ice you get 3 supers on?

Perfect setup!!

I'm sorry, did you say bees will turn 1.5 gallons of syrup into 20 pounds of honey?????

Thanks for the video, im new to your channel what state are you in?

Good advice on keeping Nucs around. Thanks for the video. I was thinking that a direct introduction would be successful. Thanks for showing that it is possible.

What state are you from?

to get the queen to run up to innerlid, just tap with nuckles on both sides of brood

If it's raining and the nuc is in cardboard, do you still just put them where they'll go? Any covering? Thanks! Great video!!

You could also put a queen excluder between the 2 deeps then come back after a couple days and then split the deeps and allow the queenless deep reer a new queen on its own.

When you load the bottom brood box with capped brood and then queen excluder doesn't that cause over crowding and invoke the urge to swarm? I am a novice an trying to learn, thank you.

Where did u get your magnetic belt that holds the hive tool? Thx

In the "quick no look" that you showed at the end, you didn't check to make sure the queen was in the bottom below the queen excluder?

Where did you put the nuke with the original old queen after you finished rearranging?

New subscriber here. Do the color of your boxes represent different things? Or you just paint the hives with whatever color paint is available on hand?

Excellent video, Justin.

Awesome suggestion!

Do you always have the notch pointed up?

Hello sir , Thanks for your videos .I am curious to know if you provide your bees with sugar candy in winter ? Is it fine to do that in the states amongst beekeepers ? I live in the middle East Thanks 👍🏻

Great video

What happened to your channel? Your videos are very informative and you’re close to me. Thanks! George

I think from using OA for a few years now the vaporization method works the best. There are new OA products that you can use 2 grams per deep as a legal treatment. In SE Ohio I treat 5 times over 21 days with vaporization. This is legal. Then I treat again like you say just before the winter solstice. Great video.

What signs do you look for to know when the flow is on or coming.

Great info - thanks. Just went to split and found queen cells in my hive. Wish I’d seen this before. But going back to do some remedial work tomorrow. Thank you!

With a weak colony like this, would you re-queen if you know you are close to a flow?

The only thing I see that you need to save that wax in a bucket lnstead of putting it on the ground. This would help with wax moth control and give you some extra wax for other things.

I've been a beek for over 15 years, your tone, they way you convey to everyone is awesome - I wish you would vlog more often. Awesome videos!

How often do you replace the old queen? Some guys try to replace her every year.

Awesome, thank you

So helpful, thank you. I am a backyard beekeeper in central florida so the flow seems on going sometimes. I seem to have good genetics and want to keep it. Good to have this great information.

another healthy perspective. Thank you, I'm new to your videos .How is it you can take bees from all different hives and them not fight with one another?

Do you see any difference in performance if you were to install a package in to the 2 story nuc configuration? B/c of bees tendency to like to build up and not out?

Heu justin, i have a migratory top with top feeder hole. I was wondering if i need to use a inner cover? Thank you for these awesome videos.

On average, how much honey do you get off each single deep brood management?

Hey Justin, do you sell your hats?

Nice hat.

Great and well explained video!

awesome explanation brother. . . God bless y'all

Justin I just found your channel Tuesday I have very much enjoyed every one of your videos, You do a fine job explaining I live in Virginia so that even made it better I think your weather is closer to mine. I have candy on all my hives doing the winter the candy I make i put pollen in it. They eat it up to they just by pass any honey they have in there hives. I hope you continue to do videos this year All your videos are old. I hope u do the videos the day you are working your bees and upload them. that would be great. Any way just wanted to say hi the vedios are great and thanks for doing them. been doing bees for 11 years I have 41 at this point. Going for a encrease again this year I am now retired from my full time job. and that is great. I am still a care giver I do that from 4pm-9am unless he gets sick them it is a full time 24-7 you just made me think of a question you said u remove the q if the hive is trying to swarm, Do you ever remove the queen from a hive even before there is swarm cells just to increase, the hive does not ever think of swarming and u have another hive. Plus you have many queen sells to make small 1 frame splits this worked great for me last year. I have removed queens from strong hives to make me some queens. I have tryed grafting but I have a eye Dease and grafting is not working to good for me. I am going to try again I have gotten a very large magifing glass and special lighting with it and I also have a large magnifing glass that I can hang around my neck to help me see when I do inspections, so hoping this will help me, Anyway thanks again for the time you put into the videos. Have a Blessed week

I stopped using the sugar shake method. studies have shown that 90 percent of bees die after 48 hours anyway. alcohol washes are more accurate anyway

Do you ever undersuper your boxes. If so when do you do it in the process.

Very nice video well explained. I am moving to single brood boxes this season and will replicate your method.

Great video! What type of queens do you use? Your bees seem very easy to work Sorry if I'm asking something that you have already answered. What time of year is it when you do this process? I know it's a couple weeks before your flow, but time of year is that for you? Also, when you are building that bottom deep up to be strong, how many frames of brood are you wanting to have in that bottom box? Lastly, if I am consolidating in order to build strong singles and I don't have enough brood from the hive I'm working in, can I pull extra brood frames from a different hive to fill up the one I'm working? Thanks, Brady

Nisam baš najbolje shvatio zašto ste stavili još jedan nastavak, molim vas da mi napišete, i koje je doba godine, inače jako cijenim vaš rad.

I done the single brood box last year an wow it produced honey great . I was not going to do it again this year but I would be stupid not to . For some reason one of my bee yards last season ended being light on bees going thru winter an my other yard is jammed full so I have a bunch on balance work to do this spring. I have never had that to happen before with that much difference in my colony’s. You said you are over around Mocksville correct. ??. What kind of Bees do you use ??. Thanks

what is the brand name of the pump ?
