    Hello Gus! You likely were not aware, but I am so thankful that you provided your comb-honey for the Pierce Beekeeping Equipment display. I had a cough that kept interrupting my fun, and I needed that comb! It absolutely worked! THANK YOU! You have a new subscriber :)

    On these rainy days, I listen to stuff like this while I piddle around. I call it “gleaning UA-cam” looking for little nuggets of information, tips and tricks that you get from listening to beekeepers talk!!! Hoping all is well Gus!!!

    Gus, tip on not losing queens when pulling from nuc. I saw a large breeder that had his workers use a folding table. Like a TV dinner tray. They had the nucs on the ground and would set the nuc on the table and work over it. Zero loss unless they moved away from the table.

    Thanks Jim. Nah. Good interview Gus. I’ve rewatched bob bennies interview with him a few times. Wish i could get some of his queens but I believe they are sold out indefinitely

  • @woodlandharvesthoneycompanyllc

    Gus your plans for elevating hives and queen rearing would be a great series. I like all your videos.

    It's all good Gus, I blank a lot.😁Oh I forgot about the t-post toppers🤔I have to remember those they seemed to work real well and with how I am setting up my t-post bee hive benches those would work great.👍

    Great channel (I just discovered it)! I am trying as well to get a small queen rearing operation of the ground so I look forward to your upcoming videos - while reviewing your available material. Thank you for posting!

      @beebob1279 Рік тому +1

      I enjoy the channel too. He's original and not trying to show everyone how great he is (which he is). Some videos the guys like to hear themselves talk.

  • @beebob1279

    Very good interview. The questions were spot on for what a person wanting to get into queen rearing needs to hear.

  • @lexnite22
    @lexnite22 Рік тому +1

    Asking some pretty solid questions Gus! Maybe because I'm starting to experiment with queen rearing this year too. Looking forward to more.

    Great questions on this interview. I graft just enough cells for myself and the info on acceptance and NUC strength is clutch. Would love to get in touch with you about some t-post adapters. I’ve seen the video, and the update, and I’d love to purchase four or five if you’ve had any extras made to sell yet. Chris Werner is a wealth of knowledge. Loved the 5 part series Bob did with him. Thanks for making and sharing this interview! By the way, not sure if you caught the comment on the Kamon stream last night, but I remembered the BBQ place I used to go to and loved and couldn’t remember when we were talking: Jim Neely’s Interstate BBQ.

      I don’t have it worked out to sell any yet but as soon as I do I’ll let you know!
      I love that series to I’ve watched it multiple times.
      As far as bbq I like Paynes, they’re hard to beat

    That jump to hiring (paying) someone to help will be a big hard step for you. You have some good genetics and if marketed effectively could make you some money. But where do you find a "Carrie" in Memphis?? Maybe a retired person who is a hobbyist beek ?

    • @gusmitchellcranesnesthoney6529
      @gusmitchellcranesnesthoney6529  Рік тому

      I hired some part time help last year, but one is in jail for the foreseeable future and the other got a full time regular job.

    Mr Gus I'm a hobbyist with 2 hives near augusta ga. How many hives do I need to have to consider making my own queens? There are no apiaries near me

    Gus, everyone makes mistakes, especially in an interview situation. I like your transparency about the slip up which, shows your authenticity. Chris was one of my favorite speakers at the conference this year. He has a great delivery and is extremely knowledgeable. Thanks for sharing a little extra content with him. I didn't get to meet you at HL. I wish I would have said hello. I am planning on increasing my queen rearing this season. Look forward to following your 2023. All the best to you!
