- Опубліковано 27 бер 2023
- It's springtime, which means it's time for a hive checkup. This time we're looking at the new bees, the over-wintered bees, and the drones. We want to make sure everyone is looking healthy and happy. You'll see many of these bees carrying pollen of different varieties. Come along with John as he inspects the hive to ensure all is well in the bee colony.

That is awesome! Good luck to you, Jim!
Stay on those bees this year. I caught my 7th swarm this past Sunday. They came from my colonies. Thank You Jesus.
Congrats, Patrick! That's awesome.
How many hives do you have?
So amazing 😘
Thank you!
I caught one on my colonies about to swarm March 8. That is the easiest for me. They would have died due to rain and freezing weather coming after that warm spell. Charlotte NC.
The weather sure plays tricks on us beekeepers. Good thing you caught them before the cold came in.
We got a extra hour of day light during daylight savings time. Gives them more time to get stuff. lol (Just a funny Comment)🐠🐠🐠🐠
Haha you're totally right. 😂 🐝
Learn something new when watching you. Awesome. Thanks
Thanks so much, Jay!
Windy days......place a sock over the mic :-)
Thanks for your info. How early in spring are folks treating for mites and what are your treatment preferences?
Thanks
Thank you for your video it was extremely informative. I’d love to see another one where you’re actually splitting the hives.
Thanks Jesse! We have this video from the last split we filmed. Check it out!

Always interesting. Better to move the camera in and out rather then use the zoom on the phone or camera. Makes for a better presentation. More work but better results.
We're sorry that our complicated camera moves don't meet your quality standards. Thanks for the tip.
John Smith I want to know about the bee jacket you are wearing ?? Please
Here's all the info! We love this jacket.

This is my 5th year and my goal is to do splits well.
I dont have a ton of drawn deep frames. Is it ok to start a split in a medium? I have plenty of medium drawn frames from honey harvesting.
Yes, it is perfectly fine to use those medium frames with drawn comb. Just know if you split them into a deep super you are going to get drawn drone comb added the depth of the hive. Thanks for watching, hope this helped. #RTBBF
@@CentralBeekeepersSupply I would move to a medium box with medium frames
