@@dcsblessedbees * I got to see your beekeeping subscription list. You get around!🫠

Does the pollen grid need to come all the way out?

^I didn't buy mine from Cabelas but I bought them locally at a hardware store but these are the same thing. Thanks for watching!

13:09-13:10 she’s a black nice looking queen left bottom

@@PeabodysApiary Good eye! I def missed her during this inspection

Yes very thankful to the property owners to be able to keep some hives there.

Yes, primarily whatever pieces of wood, pine needles, etc that I can find laying around.

@@timlewis9873 couldn’t agree more!

While you could I do not recommend. Unless you are leaving those honey supers on for the bees to consume any honey within. Apiguard is going to make the honey taste off if you try to harvest those supers for human consumption. It is best done after supers are pulled.

Yes he and I have been in communication ever since I first posted the video. His video helped me a lot. Thanks for the watch!

Yes this is the first season I’m testing out the peppermint candies. I’ll be curious to see how they work. Thank you for the watch!

Hello thank you! Actually I had watched your video not that long ago and bought a vacuum that was somewhat similar. I wish I bought the exact model you show in your description because the one I got is not super strong but does still vacuum beetles. Thank you for the watch and I just subscribed to you as well!

For the split in the video, I did not see walking drones but saw drone brood which should be hatching within next week or two.

Ok. I think the drones need a few days after emergence to mature. I hope it works out for you but I think you may be a coupla weeks early. I hope I am wrong. Good luck!

@@rtxhoneybees a few of the hives I have in that yard and in yards nearby have some drones already walking around. There just weren’t any walking drones in the hive the split is happening with. Might be too early but I think it’s going to be close either way. Only time will tell.

Yes very sad. Hoping honey will be collected in early/mid june pending on how the flow goes this year.

Thank you!

Yep they have stayed strong no issues on my end. Only warp I’ve had has been due to using an oxalic acid vaporizer which will melt the plastic near the entrance. Aside from that, very pleased with the apimaye bottoms.

I am north/central Georgia just north of Metro Atlanta

I have and normally it lasts 7-10 days. This can be a problem if your hive is being attacked by pests like hive beetles and moths since the population won't be able to defend as well.

@@drewbeesapiary5452Thanks for your reply. Two of my queens stopped laying after I started the treatment. I was really worried. They are laying again and the brood patterns are nice. I was so relieved after my last inspection.

@@mgmbamaguy Glad to hear it! It is often scary when it is hard to tell if the queen absconded or not due to the treatment. I had a few happen like that a month ago as well.

The queen excluder is leave on during the warm months as it makes my inane too a quicker plus I like to keep my queens laying in the bottom brood box and not in the supers above. I do not know what you mean when you say “you are making sugar honey”. The sugar water I am feeding the bees is to get them through the dearth and so they can build up their stores for winter.

@@drewbeesapiary5452 I guess you are using your honey supers as stores for the bee, not to sell honey

@@daisyshoney6021that is correct. The rest of the year any honey made and stored is for the bees, not to sell.

Only if it is available. They will almost always want the natural stuff first but during lean times they will take the sugar water solution.

Couldn't agree more! Thanks for the watch

Those are for 10 frame equipment.

Couldn't agree more!

Are you referring to the white landing boards near the front of the hives? If so those are part of the Apimaye bottom board system. They are easily the best bottom board on the market just a little expensive. I just want to make sure I am tracking the same thing.
