Have you ever wondered where the queen is in a pack hive? here is a good trick to narrow down the search, all you have to do is move some frames one by one looking at them as you move them to another box, and start listening to the buzzing and see which box is making the most noise, the box which is making the most noise will be absent of the queen. And the calm quiet Hive of honey bees will have the queen. This is a great beekeeping tip from Barnyard bees. Beekeepers try this tip and you will not regret it it works every time. - Розваги
Wow... My experience is if you ask 10 Beekeeper’s a question you’ll get 20 different answers. I feel like every time I’m on UA-cam trying to figure something out... it’s one of your videos that truly helps me. Thank you so much for doing this! I’m truly grateful.
That is great. I have learned so much from you and I don't even have bees. Just love nature. You should write a book.
totally agree!
THANK YOU for verifying my observations - I keep telling people "It's all about the bees' - 'they will tell you what is going on in your hive' - you don't have tear your hive apart every time you check on it.......just 'cause you can't see her don't mean she ain't there !
That's a brilliant tip. I'm about to move a small colony with a new queen back into a nuc for the winter, but I'm a new beekeeper and I can't spot the queen. You have given me a way of knowing where she is without actually seeing her. Thank you so much. I feel better about moving the colony now
Fascinating. I'm six weeks into keeping and was beginning to wonder if I had a queen. But when I was scooping up a beard that stayed on ab old box and she came running up my arm. Put her on the porch and she ran inside. When I open the hive here in a week or so, I'll be listening.
The contrast was perfect! I could immediately tell the difference.
Excellent tip! I have worked with bees for some 5 yrs now and first time that was pointed out to me. You sir have very calm bees also!
Wow they fricken amaze me. How sophisticated and complicated their lives are. How the hell would they all know their queen is gone, amazing. Such awesome things.
Excellent example of how a hive reacts to being queenless. Also shows how quickly they realize it. Thank you so much for this video.
Thanks for this video. Spent all winter watching your channel. I got my first nuc and wasn't able to find the queen. The bees in the new hive started their chain saws while I was looking for her so I figured she was still in the box. After moving another frame from the nuc to the hive box (that I looked but still didn't see her), they all quieted down so I was pretty confident she was in the hive even without having spot her.
YOU ARE THE BEE WHISPERER! Thank you.
Thank you for this video. I notised that my first hive was loud today, becauce they been queenless sins yesterday. I pit them together with my second hive now, with queen.
I've been going through your videos for the past couple weeks after discovering your channel, and I can honesty say your are THE BEST bee teacher on UA-cam right now. Everything (I thought) I knew is starting to make so much sense now. Like a puzzle; seems all you get out there are all the little pieces of information, and its up to us newbies to figure out how to put it all together. What I keep learning from your videos over and over again is that it's all about knowing the bees; how they behave, why they do what they do, etc. That was the part that was missing for me and you are doing a great job in your videos of explaining why the bees are doing what they are doing. It helps me so much to understand the bigger picture, not just the tidbit. Thanks and keep up your great contributions to the art.
I really appreciate that. Means so much to me to get feedback like that. Thank you so much!!!
Probably the best video showing the sound a queenless hive makes. Well done sir!
As new beekeepers, this informational video is really helpful and makes sense. Thanks for sharing and showing us newbees how it's done.
Gday David,
Once again. Thanks so much. Priceless information for newbies like me. I really appreciate the time you take to pass on the info.
Cheers, Nigel
I think I heard a bee scream “Never let go Jack!” from that bee chain.
THIS WAS EDUCATIONAL ON SO MANY LEVELS!!! I AM A GRANDMOTHER OF 10 GRANDBABIES!!!! 2 OF THEM ARE DOING REPORTS ON BEE'S OR WASPS!!! I FOUND BARNYARD BEE'S ON YOU TUBE & NOW UMM BATTING 1,000 WITH THEM FOR SHARING YOUR YOU TUBE VIDEO!!!! I HAVE S
David, Just a note to say I really like your videos. Have been keeping bees for 25 years but you teach me things I didn't know You and Don the Fat Bee Man. Thanks man!!! Rick in pa.
Thnx, from a new beekeeper, old Navy vet here.
I just ordered a queen from you. Hopefully I will get her soon!
Really useful tip for me here in the UK as a new beekeeper. I split my hive a week ago, so I can put your advice into action. Thanks again!
Very helpful information. Transferred a Nuc last week, didn’t see the queen but they seem happy. Lots of new bees trying to figure out their location which is a good sign. Going to listen to hive from now on. Thanks
PREFECT!! CORRECT!!!! MISS THIS HOBBY SOOOO MUCH!! HAPPY SPRING & EASTER TO ALL 🐝🐞🐝🐞🐝🐞🐝🐞& BEEZZZZNESS 😊😊😊😊☺
Great tip for new beekeepers! Thanks for this and all your videos
It amazes me how confidently you reach in to.pull a frame. No gloves, etc. Now I can be brave around carpenter bees...
I THINK CARPENTER BEES REACT DIFFERENTLY.
Amazing how that traditional swarming sound came through right after you took the queen.
Great video and tip. Ive had times I couldn't find the queen and this will be very helpful.
Thanks Dave. You are a great resource for new bees like myself. Keep it up!
Thank you very much for the tip, this made me sure that my first colony I bought few days ago is without a queen. Keeping bees for the first time I was getting quite anxious simply thinking that I was failing to spot the queen.
Thank you so much. Learning how and what to listen to is invaluable. I have a feral hive in my shed & two very experienced bee keepers are helping me get set up to provide them a new home in a bee box. We will do the removal & re-establishment in about 2-1/2 weeks. I'm gorging on UA-cam vids & yours are so informative. Thank you for sharing you knowledge & intuition.
Thanks so much for posting this! I’ve got one 6 frame nuc as my first hive and unfortunately it fell over I some heavy winds. Since then I wasn’t sure if the queen was alive but when I inspected they were quiet and docile so I’m quite sure she’s in there somewhere.
That is cool. Me and the wife bought our first 2 nucs this year. We go pick them up the week of the 14th. We've watched just about all your videos trying to learn as much as we can before we get them. We are in northern Wisconsin so it will be a little more difficult for us, especially if we have another winter like this past one again. We are both excited to start growing our apiary. Cheers!
I love your videos you explain everything so wonderful and in detail. It helps me so much as a new beekeeper. And your passion for your bees shows in every video. Thank you so much
don't know why, but I was thinking you were gonna have a queen piping in the video, so that's what I was listening for, lol. Great video, you have some great content.
Man thanks for all the videos and information. I am a new beekeeper. I caught a wild bee swarm.
I cannot begin to tell you how much I've learned. Listen to the bees (AKA The Bee Whisperer) - Even the experienced bee keepers in my club don't truly listened to their bees - ha ha! I know something they didn't know - thank you.Think if I hadn't said 'singing' they wouldn't have rolled their eyes. they do sing....
Ask 10 beekeepers for advice. Youll get 12 different answers
Sometimes it sounds like a puppy whining. I can't even begin to imagine how they make that noise.
Probably the coolest bee keeping tip I’ve learned to date. 2nd year newbie. Thank you!
Good show
Great point about listening to the hive!
Excellent demonstration David.
That was a great presentation. Thanks again!
Great video. Thanks for the tips. It is awesome to have you share with us.
Thank you so much for your help. These videos are filled with so much information.
Thank you from the UK. I saw my marked queen when she arrived a year ago. She swarmed two months later and I never saw her daughter. I bought a set of marker pens this year and had my yellow marker all ready and... they just sent off a huge swarm. Yellow retired ... red marker pen will be unwrapped. Smiles. Thank you for your excellent videos.
I can't have bees where I live but I really do love these and what they do in the garden thank you for sharing your bees with me 👍👍👍😄
Tried this yesterday. I only had a 4 frame nuc available, but I was surprised at how fast the reaction took place, and LOUD! Next week I will use a 10 frame box and move frames until something changes.
By taking the top box off, I should be able to tell which box she's in too.
Very useful.
I installed my FIRST nuc on motherdays morning. Happy mothers day to me!
I am absolutely in love w my bees. They are SO gentle. Amazing journey I have signed up for.
Good information as usual! Thanks for your videos. You're helping me a BUNCH!
Thanks for teaching everyone (and me) how to make new beehives. I've made 7 so far. I'm not culling old queens so this really helps me avoid swarming. 🐠🐡🐋🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
That was an AWESOME tip!!!! Thanks!!!!
Wow! What a difference in the boxes! You can hear it!
Listen to you talk about a livestream I just found you I absolutely I am amazed at the principles that God has shown me about him with these B's at the end of the day I really appreciate this and I'm going to keep on watching cuz I'm learning a lot
This is awesome! I am a new beekeeper and have learned a lot from your apiary walk throughs.
Ive learned so much from watching your videos . Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge & experience to make our world better.
torrid greetings from phoenix.
Thanks for making your videos. I have very little experience with bees. I did some hive removals for a guy as his helper. I never had property to own my own hives but I want to. Now, a friend of mine wants to buy some hives and have me manage those hives. So, it was great to find your videos and learn from them.
That is the most helpful tip I've heard all year! Thanks
Absolutely amazing!! Thanks!!
Brilliant. This video will save me a lot of time looking for queen during splits!
Wish there was a love button love your videos and learning what you share thank you. Ill be getting all my supplies from you for sure.
I just got a few hives this spring, and one swarmed out within the first week (I placed new deeps on top upon installation). First inspection a week later, I had a feeling I was queenless and those bees acted the same way! Loud, upset and flighty!
David this is so neat. I can see how an experienced beekeeper would be able to tell if a hive loses their queen before they even dig into it. Thanks.
Thanks. This helped a ton. We recently had to split a hive because they were threatening swarming.
Great tip brother
"11people who watched this were looking for a rock band!
😂
I hope it works I'll try it tomorrow I am just soooo happy to have this tip right now
I’m no bee keeper, but I have been enjoying your videos! Thanks for a great watch lol
This is awesome, learned a lot from this video on what to listen for if there is no queen inside the hive 👍
WOW. That difference in sound is AWESOME.
EXCELLENT! I don't know if you purposely set it up with the sun lighting those bees as it did, but now, even if I were to lose my hearing altogether, I would still be able to tell if the queen was in a box or not just by looking in the box. The sun glistening off all those little wings when the queen was removed was mistakable, and unforgettable, evidence that she was gone. And when she was in the box they were almost all quietly moving around with no fanning at all. Great demonstration! Now I know what to look for. Thanks.
Excellent job. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Excellent info! Thank you for sharing.
Great points! Always learning. Thx
Excellent video!!
You, sir, surely know your bees. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome example...thank you!
Very cool. My wife and I are restarting our bee yard this year. This will help us a ton.
Oh yeah, I subscribed.
Great video for us newbies! Thank you.
Thank you for this video. I have trouble finding queens
Wow that’s amazing!!! Thanks for this great information!
Thanks David nice to know .
This was really helpful. Thank you
It's so funny I'm terrified of bees(anykind) I got attacked by bees when I was a little girl but I do love you're videos
Outstanding Information !
Thank you !
It looked to me that the queenless bees held there wings out to the side more than the queenright bees, even those not fanning.
Learned something new today thanks!
Thanks! Just started two new hives. Didn’t know this! In FL.
Just subscribed.
Thanks!!! That's a great tip!
I just split one of my hive today but couldn't find the queen. I had to do it as the queen cell just got capped nd I wont be home to check them for 2 weeks. I'm just hopping she was down the side like you said... I guess I'll find out in 2 weeks If there is the same amount of brood then good 🤞😖🤞 thanks from Scotland for your good videos
GREAT things to know, thank you!
Very good insight. Thanks
This an awesome video - thanks for posting!
Really good tip. Thank you!
So last night I made a split looked through the hive and never found the queen thought they may have swarmed yet they were quiet. As soon as I moved a frame of brood with bees over to the new hive the old hive roared like this. Finally found the queen hiding in that one frame
Good advice thank you .
Thankyou,for the insight...
Great video. Very helpful.
MISPRINT: SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR CHANNEL!!! I LOVE IT!!!😊😊😊👏👏👏
With Queen, they are content...amazing 👍🏻👏🏻🌹
Possibly why they roar: the bees think the queen flies out of the hive, so they flap their wings fanning out pheromone to the surrounding air to help the queen find her way back to the hive.
do you think they might do that while she is gone on her mating flight?
Amber Hoffman yes infact i see lots of bees kinda like bearding and fanning at the entrance, while waiting for the queen out on mating flight.
