    How do we define success? I think that family of yours is a big success and a blessing. Great video again Nathan. See you soon.

    Thanks for the video, I hope 2024 goes well for you and your plan. Liked seeing the interaction with your kids growing and experiencing such a beautiful area to grow up in. I didn't see my first Bobcat till I was in my 20's.

    Best Christmas present ever! A new video from Nathan! We are having unseasonably warm weather here in Iowa, 50s and raining, finally getting some moisture! It's been dry all year where I'm at. If we had 12 inches of rain this year at my house, I'd be surprised. We're supposed to get around 2 inches of rain before this moves out. Have a merry Christmas with your family!

    Good video Nathan, a couple things to think about going into retail supermarket.
    1. Most grocery stores will charge a slotting fee $ per item (sku)
    the smaller grocerier may not charge a $ slotting fee but there will be a free fill typically 1 case oer sku per store.
    2. Many of the supermarkets will have a 16 weeks of TPR (tempory price reduction) there may be a fee associated with this too.
    3. Not all supermarkets follow a review calendar. Typically the smaller store will have a open review calendar. Meaning they will talk to about your product if they have a need for it.
    Just so you know I work for a food broker and I deal with this everyday. Working with food manufactures, supermarket chains, and distributors
    Keep in mind that your product will fall under the natural/speciality side of the business

    That jubilation of staying up on a bike immediately followed by the realization that I never learned how to stop is something that'll stay with me forever!!! Merry Christmas.

    Hey Nathan, I'm a bit late to the party making a comment here now, but would you mind to share where you got the 5.5oz square jars and the item number, I've been looking for them and haven't ran across them yet. Thanks, and keep up the great work with the videos. Prayers from Bee Lick for a successful season for ya!

    Gareners buy Ladybugs to release in greenhouses at night to eat the aphids. Sell them.

    I got your head cold yesterday Nathan but wishing you and the family a Merry Christmas. Now that it's legal, it is time to ditch the vaporizers and start the oxalic acid extended release for proven mite control.

    @duckriverhoney this is out of order from an earlier vid. But do you find yourself using the ez110 the most? There are a number of the cordless ones on the market but I still tend to lean toward the better buy being the ez110 even though I haven’t pulled the trigger. Curious if you think the generator/inverter is too cumbersome.

    Where do you buy your glass jars from. If you don’t mind saying.

    How many grams of oxalic are you treating with per box?

    • @DuckRiverHoney
      @DuckRiverHoney  6 місяців тому

      The legal dose is one gram per box, but current research indicates that’s probably ineffective. I’m dosing 4g on full sized hives and 2g on nucs.

    How many outyards do you have and how many colonies per yard?

    • @DuckRiverHoney
      @DuckRiverHoney  6 місяців тому +1

      I’ve got permission for 8 so far, don’t have bees in one yet. Aiming for around 24 colonies per yard but I’m spread thinner than that now.
