Oh my gosh, just fantastic. Woody is great. I want to hear him talk about mites, colony collaspe, all of the things that are taking a toll on the bee populations and why we need to save the bees. I am excited about the classes too. Very, very important to crops and sustainability. Label time, too! Love it, Robert!! 👍👍❣️❣️❣️❣️
We should have much more coming with Woody! And he will have lots on his socials too -
OBF HONEY COMING SOON! Gotta find out bottle size etc
@@THEOLDBYRDFARMVLOG when he was talking about the "girls" I thought the only female was the queen. He is super knowledgeable about bees like Miss Vicki is about plants.
@@THEOLDBYRDFARMVLOG I looked at a 44 jar of local honey today. Including tax it was $18.08

My father in law has beehives, and I stay far away from them. Sometimes, he doesn't use the protective gear either when he works in his beehives. He has been stung many times, and it doesn't bother him. He says it's good for his arthritis.😮. He builds his own beehives boxes. Last year, he had over 50 pounds of honey he put in jars.
That’s a lot of honey!!
Ive seen a lot of bee keepers that don’t wear any protective gear. That’s why I wanted to just go ahead and get the full experience!
I also read about the health benefits of bee venom, pretty interesting
This is awesome! My dad was a beekeeper and we learned so much about bees from him. Woody does a fantastic job explaining things! Bees are really intelligent little creatures and our flowers, vegetable plants, trees, etc. need them very much to keep the environment balanced and productive.
Wanna see a miracle about bees associated with the number 16? I just made a short and i would love to hear your opinion about it if you like 😊
@@seconduniter Very interesting information. There is a reason for this for sure.
@@pamelawooten3251 thank you. I think the way the universe is created is genius and of intelligent design. Do you agree?
Awesome! This is great idea having bees on the Old Byrd Farm. I learned a lot today n looking so forward to learning more. This has always been in the back of my mind that it would be good to have bees on the farm. I’m loving it.
Really amazed at how calm Woody was with the bees. I don’t think I could do it as I’m always moving to fast. He was great with the knowledge.
Can’t wait for more on bees. ♥️♥️😊👍👍🌟🌟🐶
I have wanted bees since just about day 1. Super excited to have them at the farm!
Who’s ready for Old Byrd Farm honey???
I am!!!!!
Just let me know, kind Sir! Love darker honey.❤
Me!!! 🎉
Me!
Me! Me! I did want to say though, that holster/gun next to Woody isn't going to stop those bees from stinging you! LOL
Robert, this was fascinating, from start to finish. If I was still teaching, I would share this with my students. Woody is so calm around the bees. I envy you your pollinizers. With my 17 blooming blueberry bushes, I had very few bees. We had a swarm one day for about an hour before they took off. Darn. I used the electric toothbrush approach which worked very well. The bushes are loaded with blueberries. Thanks so much for knowing this would bee fascinating. 🐝🐝🐝
I just took a Bee Class out here in WA State and I can't believe how much I didn't know! This is going to be so fun to watch! Thank you!
That’s awesome, and thanks! I’m excited to learn as well
Did they teach you about the number 16 associated with bees? I just made a short and would love to hear ur opinion on it 😊❤
You are becoming a true farmer prepared for any thing. Woody is very knowledgeable. It's amazing he had no bee suit on or used smoke. Your videos are awesome
Oh my,I like his company name.
No Way . I'm just getting over Poison Ivy !
I need you to tend the hives. It’s in the contract.
Other Robert..I had poison ivy that got all over my arms and face and I was miserable for weeks. I thought my face was going to have scars. I wouldn't be around bees either although my husband had a couple of hives in our back yard until they swarmed My brother-in-law has hives currently in his yard.
Robert that is wonderful!! My grandfather had been hives many years ago & we always got free honey. I have been a garden for 70 years and I work right in and amongst them & the only time I ever got stung was when I squeezed them between my fingers or they got under my arm & I pressed them against something or my body. However when I was a kid we had a lot of clover in our yard and I was always bare footed & of course stepped on them so I do know what it's like to get stung. Looking forward to see them busy pollinating all your flowers & veggies !!
Your garden is sure looking good brings the want to out in me. I'm the happiest digging in the dirt !!! Makes for a good & satisfying day !!
Yes!! I love bees and honey! My name, Deborah means bee🐝 I can’t wait to taste some Old Byrd Farm Honey! And such a knowledgeable teacher. He’s completely at ease with his bees. You’re going to end up with a real old fashioned farm Robert. All this diversity is a good thing. ❤️🐝🤗
Deborah!!! If you like bees please check out my short on number 16 associated with bees pleez ❤😊 and give ur opinion id love to hear it
So excited to see and learn more about bees! I've been a fan of bees since my 3rd grade teacher had a window hive at school. Love watching all your videos.
Enjoyed so much and learned a lot about honey bees. Thanks woody and Robert
Thank YOU! I’m glad you did
Brilliant Robert looking forward to seeing and finding out more.👍
Sweet! Things are just humming along on the OBF. Great idea, very exciting, they will love their new home, all those wild flowers.
For sure!
Robert, this was a terrific video. Learned so many things about bee keeping. I had a father-in-law who kept bees and he would give me racks of honey, nothing like honey from your own area. Will be looking forward to seeing more videos on your venture as a great place to have bees. Thank You so much.👍😍❤️
Robert, I'm glad you are ok. I want a Beehive. 🐝
What a super friend too have👍🇺🇸
That was a very interesting video!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed
Amazing, fascinating video!!
Fascinating. I already knew about the healing properties of honey, we use a medical-grade honey to treat wounds for our Hospice & Home Health patients.
Oh wow
Looks like you have some good partnerships going on. Good job
It's great to not only seeing the house being brought back to life but the farm itself coming back to life and how nature is being used to achieved that.
This is very fascinating! Thanks for sharing. I look forward to seeing more.
Thank you! I can’t wait to learn more myself…
Oh dear, I struggled to watch this one, the sound made the hair on my arms stand on end. I know how good the bees are for the planet but do they have to buzz lol. Best wishes from the UK 🇬🇧
🤣🤣🤣 the angry bee noises certainly got intense there for a moment. They were attacking the microphone
@@THEOLDBYRDFARMVLOG scary lol
This was awesome! My father-in-law was a beekeeper. My hubby talks of the time to take honey. It was Tupelo honey from North Florida.
Id bee so far away from this in the suit!! But the humming sounds so peaceful! Thank you Robert
Welcome to Beekeeping! Pretty sure you're going to enjoy the adventure. God bless.
I love bees,,,,Robert this is so very awesome, thank u
Great video! Very educational! ❤️ 👍
My husband kept bees for 70 years so I can tell that Zac is a very skilled bee keeper. The Italians are nice bees to work with but they produce brood all winter. That means they can starve in the winters up north here. We had better luck with the carneolans because they stop producing brood in the winter. Scraping the stinger out with a credit card works well. Yes I have been stung by more dead bees than live ones. Ask Zak why they dive bomb my hearing aids.
So, road noise does not disturb them?
Interesting!!! thank you!!
Bees are so productive, prolific and efficient creatures
I’m so excited you are expanding the farm to include lots of new things. 👏👏👏❤️👍
I love 🐝 So cool Robert! I love that you are going to have bee boxes. Grow organic! Save the bees!
Top best friend thans te video fantastisch 🌞🎈🌹👍✅💯☕🚚🌾🌺🌷🐝
Oh my goodness...that was so cool but scary at the same time!!!
Its good thing. Untill year ago we kept bees in my family from my father's side.🐝🍯 Same box stile as in the video. But for some reason during the pandemic they started dying off. We had over 40 boxes fully populated, now its less than 10. You need smoke device for them, bee suilt that comes with hat and mash and special pies that are placed in the box...or have the specialist over regularly.
you are doing so much, turning this into a real farm. Good for you!
💜💜💜
Okay Robert, time to tell the truth. UA-cam isn't your only job - you're a full-time farmer.
It didn’t start out that way, but it sure has become that way 😳
I love the direction you are going in with this land that you inherited. Good stuff!
Couldn't help but notice that shootin' iron sitting there.
This was awesome! My Dad used to keep bees and I loved to help. I want hives so bad but can't afford them and can't find anyone that would bring their hives here. You need to tell Aaron about this guy. They lost their hives over the winter and want to get more started.
Very nice Video👍.. I Love seeing bees 🐝
What an awesome business....wishing you success with your new venture Robert.🐝
Thank you - lots of excitement coming on the farm. From farm fresh veggies for sale to honey and so much more -
I've got to rest after this. I'm allergic to honey bees!
😮 Oh my Word ! 🐝 Bees 🐝 and more Bees ❤ I have heard that there really are Bee Charmers out there. Alot of times they are the Old folks an sometime you get some you train, but give these bees a Flower Graden so big an so wide an just filled full of Wild flowers.
Fascinating
I’m familiar with mason bees (They’re native to North America) but I don’t know much about honey bees so this is going to be a learning experience for me. Thank you!
For me as well
Interesting video, I love the honey, but I’m just afraid of the bees been stung a few times in my life.
If you love honey, id love ur opinion on my short about bees and number 16 😊
great video and just a wonderful thing to do to help support all the flowering plants and
fruit, farms anything with flowers bees pollinate, that is how we get all of the vegetables
and fruits! with out them, no food! “ honey im home “ is a great name for a bee rescue
group! keep up the great work.
Wow we can hardly hear y’all from all the bees. Glad your getting bees because we need more bee hives and more honey, lol😂
This is a Beeutiful thing!!! 😁🐝🐝🐝
It’s gonna be a really nice business for that area of Georgia. Congrats
I’m looking for the UA-cam channel and can’t find it so I hope you get a good Social media presence on UA-cam it’s very important in your marketing efforts!
Woody’s social links are in the pinned comment, I gotta get his UA-cam channel link tho
I loved watching this episode!I have enjoyed every episode and am so excited to see all the amazing changes. I will continue to look forward to all the new episodes you put out.
Oh my god I could almost feel the adrenaline soaring through you as the bees were swarming around you there. Weren’t you just a little afraid? Aaahhh! Bzzz bzzz!! 😊
That was very interesting. Some things I didn't know.
Did they sting you? Man you tough! I would have freaked out, I am afraid of bees. Good for you for raising bees!!
So does that side arm mean they’re killer bees?! JK! Good on you for providing a home for the bees! This man does amazing work!
Becarefull and learn and enjoy
Very interesting I got stung once 😅😅 no thank you
LOVE YOUR BUSINESS NAME!! So glad for you and the bees Robert
Very interesting and informative video, glad to have Woody and his bees aboard Robert. Looking forward to more videos.
Wow, honey bees are amazing little creatures !!! What would we do without them ? I hope we never have to find out !
Robert you are a true steward of the Old Byrd Farm. Woody is such a kind young man and excellent teacher. You have such amazing plans for the farm thanks to Woody for giving God the credit
That is fantastic, pretty soon you'll have Honey!!!
This fellow is so interesting! Has a lot of bee knowledge.
Wow, a lesson in Bee care, newer knew that.
Just started bee keeping. Lots to learn. I wear the gear. I like the hand gun on the bricks at the end of video. 2A all the way.
I bet he makes the best honey 🍯 moonshines. Haha ❤
I am allergic to both bees and poison ivy. 😱😱
Oh no! We confirmed I’m not allergic to bees on this video, but I’m not allergic to poison Ivy either…. Although I’ve heard with more exposure people can develop a poison Ivy allergy…
That’s really fascinating. I’ve learned lots about bees seeing this- thank you!
Pretty cool video!! I'm terrified of bees-(childhood moment)-but they are amazing creatures, so grateful you're doing this Robert!
so exciting! congratulations Robert 😊
Glad you like bees because i don't want them near me. They can do their pollinating just stay away from me. My great granddaughter is highly allergic to bees.
I love ‘em. They’re super chill too, as long as you aren’t actively annoying them. I’m sorry to hear that about your ggranddaughter
@THE OLD BYRD FARM she had an anaphylactic episode as a baby. Epi-pens are super expensive. I don't think my granddaughter has one which is why I don't want bees around. Wasps I kill.
Thats amazing. I'd b wearing the gear myself. I have two cousins of diff genres that have a debilitating illness similar to arthritis. They suffer with lots of pain in joints, etc. One of those cousins actually gets bee treatment therapies. She says it helps her a lot.
Im glad u will b doing classes. Bee keeping is very involved & tedious constant work. Well maybe in the beginning anyway while ur still learning. But what do I know .. lol. Cant wait to listen & watch more. Thnx for sharing Robbie.
Now the Ole Byrd Farm is extremely buzy🐝 🐝
You know sadly the honey bee is the only stinging insect that dies after a sting. Their stinger is barbed. When they inject their stinger & pull the abdomen away, their guts/venom sack get pulled out as well. Other stinging insects stingers are smooth so they can sting you more than once & they don't die afterwards, like thise dreaded wasps & yellow jackets.
😂the bee's sure can make a lot of Norse
Woohoo pollinators...Oops honey
Love honey can't wait to see them evolve and of course try some OBF honey
Love it Robert and thank you for a natural way of doing a life's way of survival. My neighbor named her beagel Lucy. Honey i'm Home!
Very cool Robert, we are beekeepers here in TN on our Lazy K Homestead!! Enjoy those bees,
Wow, I learned a lot from this video, and I am still scared of them, lol .I want to thank you for sharing. Take care of yourselves and your bees 🐝
If you want to learn about number 16 associated with bees then i just uploaded a video and would love ur opinion on it 😊😊
Great video, very informative!
Always a great idea to have bees on your farm! :) Bless you for having them!
😮 I love Honey 🍯
Very cool video!
I would have been afraid of getting all bit up 🐝🐝🐝🌷🌸🌹🌺🌻
Very interesting video. Looking forward to more bee keeping videos in future.
Amazing video, thanks for sharing this process.
😳😳 umm nope nada no way! I know I’m in the minority but 🤷🏼♀️
It was fascinating to watch tho…good luck Robert! Always wishing you nothing but the BEST!
(P.S. I was the one who got you the “Damn Wisteria” on the front and “The Old Byrd Farm” on the back T-shirt a few years back! 😊)
Awesome!!! I could not remember. Thank you -
@@THEOLDBYRDFARMVLOG you’re welcome ☺️
This is some seriously fascinating stuff Robert. I'm hooked and already looking forward to more information. Many thanks to you and Woody for bringing this to us!
This is absolutely fantastic! What a great video! Thank you for making homes for bees and future Old Byrd Farm honey❤
That was so interesting ive jad a few hives here when the apiarists wanted their bees to collect from native flowering trees I do have native bees around here too they dont sting and build their hives in trees that have holes here in Australia they are much smaller than the european bees too and darker in colour most ppl dont notice them they produce s very rich honey Honey is terrific for wounds that are deep too I use it on my horses in a poultice if they have deep cuts it heals it fsster
A very cool video
love it Robert
Thanks for sharing
How awesome❗
