This is a beekeeping channel, a vlog of sorts. It is also home to of the live bee chats produced by the Stream Team - Beekeeping Chat. On this channel we discuss apis mellifera, aka the honeybee. We give people a look into our sideliner beekeeping operation. We share successes and failures. We show how we feed bees and treat bees for varroa mites, small hive beetles and other pests. I am not a treatment free beekeeper though at one time I thought I wanted to be. We also discus things that are important to us that I think apply to beginning beekeepers and more seasoned beekeepers alike. We also show the beekeeping techniques we use to manage the bees and harvest our honey and sell our honey. We talk about beekeeping equipment and tools. At times we also catch swarms of bees and have even done a few cutouts, though I usually leave that for the professionals. This is not Beekeeping 101, though hopefully the information here is useful. As my friend @Mike Barry says, this is not a necessarily a "how to" channel. It's a "how I do" channel. I hope you will continue to join us as we continue to perform hive inspections, discuss important matters in the beekeeping world, meet other beekeepers, perform splits, grow our operation and just continue down the path of this wonderful beekeeping adventure. Let's GO!!!
Ya brought the A game tonight, thanks much for a great live tonight. Ty much, Blessed Days...
Awesome contribution to the channel Gus… You guys keep up the great work of providing relevant information especially for the new beekeeper like me.
Yes Gus is great!
Gus has become one of my favorite beekeepers. Wish I could have watched it live.
Bruce that's a Kent Williams hive tool. He designed it for Kelly Bees in Kentucky before Mann lake bought them.
It was great meeting all of you guys at the Hive Live Conference.
Hmm ok. I got this one from Hillco.
@@brucesbees I know that, everyone sells them now. And John at Hillco gave me one too, with his Hillco emblem.
.Great guy! Can't wait to hear which queens you like best later when you get them.
@@OklahomaBeekeeper thanks for the support! And I am eager to see how the queens do as well.
THIS IS GREAT.
Glad you enjoyed it. Gus is the man!
This is a well spent couple of hours, thanks gents
Thanks for checking checking in!
Starting at 2:11:30, there is some especially GOOD information!!!! Thank you, Gus! FLYBACK SPLITS!!!!
Yep. Gus is full of a lot of great knowledge.
Catching up on my drive to work!
It was a fun chat! Thanks for checking in Jeff!
Hive tool I've never sent a comment before I hope it went through
Thanks for putting these together. The info was awesome. I learned a lot. Keep up the great work.
Thanks. That means a lot!!!
Having a character building night at work.... enjoyed listening to this!! Made my night soooo much better!! Thank you guys!!
I hear ya man. I often have those at the hospital as well. Thanks for checking in Ron!
What should I look for in colony genetics in selecting queens? Gonna use Lazutin hives as nucs this winter. Taking 5 colonies into 10 colonies over 4 hives. Maybe more if I can fit smaller colonies between larger ones in winter. I use Lazutin frames which bees store large amounts of honey on them. I am thinking of leasing apiary out for bear hunting. I use floor entrance but suspendid off the ground. But have warm and cold entrances. I run 5 frame extra deep frames in swarm traps and nucs. Ever night is 60F 15C or lower. My swarm trap is even insulated. Thinking 5-7 hives on my 10 acres up north at camp is good. Anything more is too much work. Thanks for the great video.
I like queens that build up quickly and have gentle genetics. Also those that are hygienic and mite resistant.
I want a set Gus
Fat Beeman was truly one of the pioneers along with Palmer and Oliver
Back in the day if nothing else he gave so many people the confidence to get in and start splitting bees FBM get him on for old time sake.
huh
Gus’s a little controversial that truly opens the door for FBM and David interview comon guys who’s got the balls??? You’d probably have to pay them but they both lova dollar. Greg I think you could pull it off you smoothie that’s if you didn’t burn that bridge think of the VIEWS!!!
