    I had spotty brood this summer, tried feeding, tried caging my queen for 6 days, then decided to really watch my queen & noticed she had an injury. Her middle arm was injured so she wasn't laying well. I replaced her & the hive began thriving. But I learned what to do from watching all these videos. This is my 2nd year, my 1st year was a fail but so far my bees are doing so well this year, I feel good about going into winter with this hive. Thanks so much for all your great videos!

      I would very much like to see that video. I have only recently heard about a resource hive. I have been reading about keeping since June and watching David as well as others and haven't seen anything about resource hives or how to maintain them.

    With regards to occasional empty cells in brood frames I believe that a recent study has shown that this is deliberately done to aid in temperature regulation, so no cause for concern...unlike spotty brood.

    • @beek
      @beek  10 місяців тому

      I'd love to review that study. Sometimes I've noticed it is a problem in the plastic foundation, like a bump on the floor of the cell.

      ​@@beekI'll try to hunt it down, this was relayed to me by my tutor in an AFB inspection certification course I recently undertook.

    Hi Dave, although it is cold at 44F and low I see bees flying out of the hive. It seems to me like they have a hard time trying to find the entry and I see just about thirty dead bees on the floor every two days, I have placed the hive in a ground floor balcony away from wind and rain and snow. What do they want out of the hive at this time of the year when there is nothing outside for the bees?
    Is that number of dead bees normal at this time of year?

    • @beek
      @beek  10 місяців тому

      Sounds like normal "house cleaning" and the bees still like to fly out for a potty break. They do not defecate inside the hive.

    G'day David,
    Where can I get drone frames?
    I'm in Victoria, Australia.

    • @beek

      There has to be many bee companies in Australia.

    @andidhamo583 10 місяців тому

    Hi Dave, I picked a couple of the "dead" bees on my balcony floor and took them in. I placed them on the table just to look at them, and lo and behold, some of them started to move a leg, and then trying to move, and then moving their wings, and then they were buzzing around the light. I couldn't believe it. It seems they were not dead, only frozen. What do you male out of this?

    • @beek

    Thank you for your detailed explanation of a newly laying queen, the stages from egg to larvae to pupae being capped over to finish the transformation into an adult worker as shown, and the site of a new downy young female emerging from a cell is constantly a great view to see time and time again. A frame of good brood patterns also is always nice to behold as you start caring for and watching your honeybees grow. New beekeepers this is excellent advice especially paired with an advanced mentor to corroborate the things shown here in your video helps us to understand our new found hobby. 🐝👍
