You say, "That's the biggest swarm you have ever seen." I'll go out on a limb here and say that's the biggest swam anybody has ever seen. This video deserves to go viral.
Ive seen some of 628 dirt roosters videos where he filled the back of a pickup with boxes and nucs and shook swarms this size into them. I believe he relocated them and added queen cells.
@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog I can't believe how it attracts the field bees. But it only happens when you drop the supers for harvesting. I've seen a lot of swarmed before, and we worked with the hives first before catching them. But it doesn't get big like this.
Nice work on the ladder, nice vid.

Wow that is amazing!
Most swarms that big usually have multiple queens. That is a monster.
Wow that’s amazing, I’ve never seen a collection of bees that big
I wonder if they would mostly all go back to their homes if shook out
I was thinking of that too. I checked them this morning, and the population is still the same.
@@chamberelga1653 wow that’s crazy. I bet there are a few swarms that took flight and gathered yard frenzy
