    Hey Kenny Rogers Jr. (God rest his soul). Looking good. The farm animals getting fed in the background was amusing to watch. I really enjoy watching every Friday but I'm having to rush though some as some is a little limited. 15 minutes is my max on watching most subscriptions. You and other interesting vloggers have me hooked. Keep up the great work and have a great weekend Jeff.

      I did not know the Gambler had passed away, he had some great songs. The folks that attend the abbey retreats really enjoy visiting the goats, and the goats love all the food they feed them. I understand about the time limits, and I do try to keep them under 20 minutes, but sometimes there's just to much material. Still, thanks for taking your time to watch what you can, God's peace Joey.

    Three feet of space? Neither one of y'all could stand up all the way. That's a real pain in the lower back. I'm glad you got the warranty package on that camera with Charlie always dropping the thing in the mud. It still shot some good video though.

      Isn't 3 feet the minimal space you need to get just one of your watermelon hands into? I did take out extra insurance on the camera, but that was way before Charlie came along. I was pretty rough on my equipment first, but it has turned out to have been a good investment. God's peace brother.

I have been rescuing bees from being needlessly destroyed for over 10 years now, and hope to continue to do so for many more years to come. Thanks for watching, and I hope you will check out more of my over 450 bee wrangling/ bee rescue adventure videos and let me know what you think of them.

      The Rooster would have lifted the house with one of those watermelon hands and simply scooped the hive out with the other hand, set the house back down, pack up his gear, and call it a day.......after a bacon sanwhich. Only 95, let me send you some honey brother. God's peace Lewie.

      More than likely the mice were there before the bees showed up. However, mice will move into a bee hive and the bees seem to tolerate there presence.

    Wow, nice. Our town library has bees in the walls ,I drove by one day and seen them going in a spot by a window, so interested to know what is going on there. Apparently they have been there for some time. Its to cold right now,so I think I might just have to check them out first thing this next spring. May need to invest in a bee vac too.

    Your work is fascinating! This has probably been asked before. Why is it important to find the queen? Won't the bees "elect" a new queen (via royal jelly) if she goes missing?

    • @downunderfulla6001
      @downunderfulla6001 4 роки тому +1

      The replacement queen has to be 24hrs and under old. So there’s a huge break in reproduction.

    • @anthonyappleyard5688
      @anthonyappleyard5688 4 роки тому +1

      If the queen goes missing, if the bees have eggs or very young larvae, then they can start another queen, but it uses up time and the new queen must fly and mate, and THEN she must settle in and start laying. All this wastes breeding time.

    • @Doxymeister

    • @JeffHorchoff
      @JeffHorchoff  4 роки тому +2

      The bees can only produce a queen if there are eggs less than 3 days old in the hive already. It's always the safest bet to find and cage the queen, that way, you know the likelihood of the hive to survive is greatly enhanced.

    • @quietone610
      @quietone610 4 роки тому

      When bees get cold, they cluster for warmth. It's probable that the Queen in the middle was their objective--no matter what, she has to survive.
      That's also why Queen excluders are a bad idea when it gets cold. The bee-ball moves up, and any Queen left behind will not survive.

    We love watching the videos... and today noticed the beautiful background music... Will you share the song/pianist Name?

      So glad to hear you enjoy the videos and the music I use on them, All the music I select for my videos comes from UA-cam's audio library because I am free to use it without copyright infringements. It's because of that I do not know the creators name, I just got it from UA-cam. However, soon, I will be featuring some piano compositions from a subscriber who has written melodies specifically for my channel. Stay tuned for that. Thanks for watching. God's peace Eddie.

    😀👍 Great video Mr Ed! Have had this general question, if you don't mind. When you fed the bees pollen substitute in large open trays a few videos back, what did they do with it? Did they snack on the pollen substitute at the spot, or did they transport it properly as "pollen" pellets on their hind legs back to the hives for storing? Trying to feed my hives and not sure about the right way to do it: as honey-pollen patties or as dry powder? Thank you!

    • @JeffHorchoff

      The bees bring the pollen substitute back to their hives where it is stored. Possibly, they may sample a bit themselves before returning however. As far as patties or dry, that would bee the bee keepers preference, but for me, the dry mix is by far easier and cheaper. Thanks for watching. God's peace.

      @@JeffHorchoff Thank you, Mr. Ed! Good to know that pollen substitute, at least some of the brands, are formulated to be preserved and long-term stored by the bees just like the pollen.

      If you are in the New Orleans area, let me know, I'd be more than happy to bring you along on an adventure or two. Plus, you could keep the bees. Thanks for watching. God's peace.

    So the healthy comb you keep and frame. And the brood comb you do what with?? Frame it and then? What happens with those combs, do they processed too?

      I give the bees back as much of their hive as possible, brood and honey. It is their best chance of bouncing back from the removal. God's peace.

    Great video as always. What ever happened to the "honey house" that never stops giving? The one where you got so many cut outs? Take care brother, God Bless. Bee careful. Tim

      It is still there, but I only got 4 swarms from it this year, Of course, it was a dismal year for swarms, I only got about 20 of them. Thank you for your blessings and for watching. God's peace Tim.

    Hi Mr Ed, are the homes lifted because of style? Or is there a real risk of flooding annually? Man, its real rainy and cold here in UK, 45 degrees and dropping, wet most days, the frost will be here real soon..I'd swop for 50 degrees if thats were it was gonna stay thats for sure 👍
    Much respect to you doing it the hard way, thats a whole lot of honey you got there. Ridiculously hard going on back and shoulders...Seems you called it with the Queen, but how interesting how it started on an old hive...
    Great video! God Bless,
    Christian

      Many homes are elevated for style, but most are to avoid damage from rising water. This home was built on a sever grade which is why at one end it was 8 foot off the ground and at the other end only 3 feet. I'm no fan of the type of weather you have in the UK, but then again I'm no fan of hurricanes either and we do have them.....regularly. There was a lot of honey on this removal and I was able to get over 2 gallons for myself as well as give the bees more than 5 gallons back.Thank you for your blessings and for watching. God's peace Christian.
